Economist.com | James Wolfensohn:
"'The World's Banker' sets out to be a biography of Mr Wolfensohn, but it is really as much about the rich world's relations with the poor. Mr Mallaby writes about this vast topic with vigour and wit, and in a tone so reasonable it makes you want to slap the people who scale office blocks to unfurl banners proclaiming that the 'World Bank Approves China's Genocide in Tibet'. (An absurd claim about the Bank, as Mr Mallaby painstakingly documents, and an unhelpful-to Tibetans-exaggeration of China's policy.)"
