Can poverty be ended?

On Big Think I’ve been reviewing “Creating A World Without Poverty,” Muhammad Yunus’ visionary book about a new kind of capitalism.

I reviewed it in three parts, as follows:

Muhammad Yunus: Capitalism Is Half-Baked

How Muhammad Yunus Created an Impossible Business

Muhammad Yunus On How to End Poverty

Businesspeople of all persuasions should read this book, or at the least the first two chapters. Interest in social business has grown dramatically, and companies like Google are garnering huge amounts of attention for their efforts to establish operations that aren’t just focused on profits. Yunus is an economist and a CEO, and his vision comes out of his practical experience.
