This book is so informative, easy to digest and has an awesome amount of graphical content in it to supplement the reading. Definitely recommend reading. I would also highly recommend taking the supplemental online course (offered on coursera). There’s a great website and app interface, and the course is run by Jeffrey Sachs himself!!

The content was great but the book fell apart in a week. It's very poorly made.

It otherwise looks at "wicked problem" that are multifaceted and challenging to fix.

A very important book. A comprehensive "manual" on the basic metrics and concepts behind the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and their urgency, challenges and current progress.

With lots of valuable data and easy to digest. Well structured and a strong foundation to understand the economics behind intertwining topics such as Health, Education, Economic Growth and so on.
