Marrying vivid eyewitness storytelling with concrete
analysis, Jeffrey Sachs provides a conceptual map of the
world economy and the different categories into which
countries fall, explaining why wealth and poverty have
diverged and evolved as they have and why the poorest
nations have been so markedly unable to escape the cruel
vortex of poverty. Sachs plunges into the messy realities of
economies, leading his readers through his work in Bolivia,
Poland, Russia, India, China, and Africa, and concludes with
an integrated set of solutions to the tangled economic,
political, environmental, and social issues that most
frequently hold societies back.
