520 |a "Amateurs without Borders examines the rise of new actors in the international development world: volunteer-driven grassroots international nongovernmental organizations. These small aid organizations, now ten thousand strong, sidestep the world of professionalized development aid.

Amateurs without Borders shows the aspirations and limits of personal compassion on a global scale"--  |c Provided by publisher.
