This is a highly ambitious work that retells the history of Britain's efforts at mid-twentieth century colonial development through an examination of a set of institutions and practices associated with cooperatives. In its range, depth, and rethinking, the book pulls together a startling degree of both historial argument and carefully examined but distinctive cases."—Dr. L. Carol Summers, author of Colonial Lessons: Africans' Education in Southern Rhodesia, 1918–1935 .   "Aaron Windel's erudition extends beyond a conventional British studies approach, diving deep into the terrain of the serious transnational practitioner. Its ambitions are many, and the arguments are there—of this there is no question. It will make an outstanding contribution to British studies, a field undergoing profound realignment for the modern period. This is a chastening and enlightening narrative."—Susan D. Pennybacker, Chalmers W. Poston Distinguished Professor of European History, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
