Omschrijving
This important book illuminates how the poor live, and offers an opportunity to think of efficient ways, rooted in the reality, to fight poverty in the world.
Poor Economics represents the best that economics has to offer -- Steven Levitt [Banerjee and Duflo] offer a refreshingly original take on development, and they are very aware of how they are bringing an entirely new perspective into a subject dominated by big polemics from the likes of Jeffrey Sachs and William Easterly... they are clearly very clever economists and are doing a grand job to enrich their discipline's grasp of complex issues of poverty - so often misunderstood by people who have never been poor. The Guardian a compelling and important read... an honest and readable account about the poor that stands a chance of actually yielding results Forbes.com A remarkable work: incisive, scientific, compelling and very accessible, a must-read for advocates and opponents of international aid alike, for interested laymen and dedicated academics... Amartya Sen, fellow Nobel Prize winner Robert Solow and superstar economics author Steven Levitt wholeheartedly endorse this book. I urge you to read it. It will help shape the debate in development economics. Financial World (UK)
