The no-nonsense guide to world poverty

See all formats and editions

This guide questions conventional thinking about wealth and poverty - is the opposite of poverty really wealth, or is it safety and sufficiency?

Drawing on experience of poor people all over the world, the author gives voice to those whose views are rarely sought and shows how we all need to live more modestly to make poverty history.

The author reveals that poverty is everywhere, not just in poor countries.

It's just that the West hides its poor better.
