Thought provoking. Just what can be done about poverty in the world?
|
The back cover says that the "purpose of this book is to make people think ...". The book definitely achieves that. It's not a book to be read quickly. Each chapter is quite short, but it's not possible to go straight to the next one. Time has to be spent thinking over the issues and questions raised by the author of each individual chapter. The means to ending poverty are complex - no, there is no single, simple answer - and need the governments and peoples around the world to unite with a desire to end poverty. This book will help the reader to understand what needs to be done and will hopefully prompt him or her to act.
