This inspiring and informative book will be delightful reading for academics interested in the theories exemplified, and for governmental and non-governmental organisations concerned with the upliftment and empowerment of rural or hitherto disadvantaged communities. SEIDET was not a project through which well-meaning outsiders sought to achieve induced development; rather, it was the local community that felt the need for education and initiated and embraced ICT and other training. This is the secret of its success.
