Village of Le Chambon and How Goodness Happened There). Only later did the writer of the book take the much more dramatic step of helping to disguise Peng as a Japanese tourist to prevent him from being murdered. Despite its high interest for political scientists, the text shows a few signs of having been rushed to press so as to appear before the January of 2012 elections in Taiwan. Clearly, the opposition Democratic Progressive Party wished for English- and Chinese-language versions of Thornberry’s work to appear in bookstores to remind wavering voters about the evils of the martial-law-era Kuomintang and its supposedly still-problematic current incarnation. The copyeditor could have been more exacting in eliminating more of the relatively frequent typos, for example. Overall, however, this book provides both lay and specialist readers with a fascinating entrée into political conditions in authoritarian Taiwan and into how foreign Christians struggled for justice in this high-risk environment. International Development Policy: Religion and Development. Edited by Giles Carbonnier, Moncef Kartas, and Kalinga Tudor Silva. New York, NY: Palgrave Macmillan, 2013. xv + 223 pp doi:10.1017/S1755048314000017 Unislawa Williams Spelman College International Development Policy offers an analytical perspective on the interface between religion and development: In particular, it highlights the partnerships between faith-based organizations and the major develop- ment agencies, especially the World Bank, in an effort that had reached significant importance in the 1990s and the early 2000s under the leader- ship of Bank president James Wolfensohn but has subsequently faded from prominence. In spite of this variable attention from the policy com- munity, the research presented in the volume emphasizes that the role of religion in development is neither new nor marginal. Because religion has always played, and continues to play, an integral part in the daily lives of the people that development affects, it also profoundly influences the process of development itself.
