M. G.Quibria and Albab Akanda's enlightening Companion is a significant addition to the literature on the ADB, delivering in-depth assessments of its operations to date and succinctly summarising its future priorities. Chapters provide state-of-the-art contributions from leading scholars on various themes such as the ADB's approach to an increasingly multipolar world, the role of the ADB in supporting developing member countries, agricultural transformation in developing Asia and the challenges and opportunities represented by megacities in developing Asia. Crucially, the Companion advances the sound knowledge of the ADB's history, its current methods of operation and its position in the global economy. This stimulating and forward-looking Companion will be essential reading for students, scholars and academics interested in Asian development, international economic development and international relations. It will also be a vital resource for international policymakers, diplomats, practitioners and think tank staff.

Reviews
'I strongly recommend this book for anyone interested in Asian development and, in particular, the ADB. It provides an authoritative yet accessible introduction to the ADB--its objectives, policies, development outcomes, strengths, weaknesses, areas for reforms, and challenges going forward including state-of-the-art reviews of current debates on various ADB-related issues in the context of ongoing deliberations on development assistance, international political economy, and good governance.', 'The Asian Development Bank is the premier international development finance institution for the Asia-Pacific region. It recently celebrated its first 50 years by commissioning both an official history and an authoritative examination of these countries' socio-economic development. This Companion by retired senior officials of the Bank provides further rich insights into this fascinating and diverse region.'
