Harper, Malcolm.

John Wiley & Sons, 1984..
LIBRARY SMALL BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
The development and promotion of small enterprises is agreed to be the most difficult and important fields of aid and  administration in the third world. This book is intended for administrators and staff of government, private or voluntary organizations in the Third World, and student and teachers of management and development studies. The author deals  with the methods of promoting new and small enterprises in developing countries, and with the role of small business in social and economic development, appropriate administrative and funding institutions, training, and appropriate  technology. The approach is essentially practical and though many of the conclusions are contentious they are based on first-hand experience and reinforced with examples and case studies drawn from many different countries.
