Discusses what the author calls 'Three Great Poverty Eradication Myths': that we can donate people out of poverty, that national economic growth will end poverty, and that Big Business, operating as it does, will end poverty. This work shows that programs based on such ideas have failed; in fact in sub-Saharan Africa, poverty rates have gone up.
Exposes the top 3 things that we are doing wrong in our efforts to end the root causes of poverty. This book details solutions for what actually works in ending poverty.
