The Independent Institute's David Theroux informs me of this upcoming event:

I am delighted to alert you to an airing on C-SPAN2's "Book TV" of our recent event "The Secret to Making Poor Nations Rich" this Sunday, March 30 at 4:30 p.m. Eastern time, 1:30 pm Pacific, featuring Independent Institute fellows.

Speakers:

Benjamin Powell, Research Fellow, The Independent Institute and Assistant Professor of Economics, Suffolk University. Editor, Making Poor Nations Rich: Entrepreneurship and the Process of Economic Development.

Alvaro Vargas Llosa, Senior Fellow and Director, Center on Global Prosperity, The Independent Institute.

George B. N. Ayittey, Distinguished Economist in Residence, American University.

I'm currently running a highly successful undergraduate seminar based on the book and we've had visits from 5 of the contributors (Ben Powell, Scott Beaulier, Jim Dorn, Randy Holcombe, and Pete Boettke).

NB: Chapter 5 is the best chapter!
