jerriza 's review for:
Banker to the Poor: Micro-Lending and the Battle Against World Poverty
by Muhammad Yunus
Muhammad Yunis is perhaps one of the few bankers that has made a lasting impact to alleviating poverty through micro-lending. He lives what he preaches and adopts a philosophy of social capitalism, eschewing greed and rightfully pointing out that general charity is mostly good for feeding bloated bureaucratic fees and alleviating people's conscience without requiring them to go further.
More important than the microfinance aspect, his book lays out a real approach to perhaps conducting and visualising business that can be both profitable and good for the many.
A worthwhile read with a goods start, a slow middle, and a great ending.
