In this sequel to Rural Development: Putting the last first Robert Chambers argues that central issues in development have been overlooked, and that many past errors have flowed from domination by those with power. Through analysing experience of past mistakes and myths, and of the continuing methodological revolution of PRA (participatory rural appraisal) the author points towards solutions. In many countries, urban and rural people alike have shown an astonishing ability to express and analyse their local, complex and diverse realities which are often at odds with the topdown realities imposed by professionals. The author argues that personal, professional and institutional change is essential if the realities of the poor are to receive greater recognition. Whose Reality Counts? presents a radical challenge to all concerned with development, whether practitioners, researchers or policymakers, in all organizations and disciplines, and at all levels from fieldworkers to the heads of agencies.This is a thoughtprovoking book and it would interest all those concerned with the realities of the poor in the developing world.
