Description: PublicAffairs, 2007. Gekartonneerd met stofomslag. Pp: 261. In the last two decades, free markets have swept the globe, bringing with them enormous potential for positive change.

Creating a World Without Poverty tells the stories of some of the earliest examples of social businesses, including Yunus's own Grameen Bank. It reveals the next phase in a hopeful economic and social revolution that is already under way"and in the worldwide effort to eliminate poverty by unleashing the productive energy of every human being.
