Creating a World Without Poverty
Revolutionary economist Muhammad Yunus's new book "Creating a World Without Poverty" outlines his vision for an original business model that combines the power of free markets with the quest for a more humane world -- and tells the inspiring stories of companies that are doing this work today. Yunus is the founder of Grameen Bank, a pioneer of microcredit -- an economic movement that has helped lift millions of families around the word out of poverty -- and the author of Banker to the Poor: Micro-lending and the Battle Against World Poverty.
