This would have led to future productivity increases.”

“My stories usually begin with the characters and some elements of how power (personal, political, magical) functions in the world. The rest develops as I write, and research helps a great deal with that. If you're going to write about an agrarian economy, research agrarian economies. If your main character is starving, then you should know what it means for a malnourished body to break down.”

“My solutions are to include Africa in the global economy, and not African charity, AIDS research, but African infrastructure development.
