Announcing the Daedalus Experiment

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- The SEVEN Fund has launched a new initiative, The Daedalus Experiment. The first issue features the piece "We All Fall Down: The Blatant Fact about U.S. Foreign Aid."

The Daedalus Experiment's Michael Fairbanks convened an international panel of influential thought leaders and practitioners in the field of economic development. Readers won't agree with everything they say; they don't always agree with each other, but what they do agree upon will surprise you. China is not so scary, the British are doing it right, and one of the greatest challenges to humankind goes unnoticed.
