Description
Seeing Economy, Welfare and Reforms in Pakistan: Essays in Honour of Dr Ishrat Husain, edited by Vaqar Ahmed and Maaz Javed, is wonderful, for Dr Husain has had a distinguished career in public service and public policy and, through his own writings, has contributed greatly towards improving our understanding of Pakistan and the issues we face.
In fact, it would not be wrong to say that Dr Husain has had many careers and has been able to distinguish himself in all of them. He was a very well-regarded civil servant, worked for the World Bank, guided policy direction in various countries, was governor of the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP), turned the Institute of Business Administration (IBA) into a full university of good standing and has long worked with the government on such important issues as institutional and civil service reforms.
