Negative Positive
Title: Very pragmatic-useful Book.
Review: I am a professor of benefit - cost analysis in El Salvador, Central America. Most of the materials in the field are expensive or too techical and complicated for an intensive-introductory course at the master level (I Teach in the Finance area). I find this book very easy to understand, concepts and examples are developed accross the book for a continuing presentation of ideas and the cases are clearly written. Calculations of shadow prices are very simple, a pragmatic appproach that I find very useful for those not interested in becoming scientists in the field, but professionals who know the COMPLETE process of evaluating a project and its impacts from both the private and public perspectives. It would be good to consider translation into spanish, as there are very few books available in our language, most of them complex as I described before.
