Poor Economics is a groundbreaking book written by Abhijit V. Banerjee and Esther Duflo, winners of the Nobel Prize in Economics in 2019. In this book, they challenge the assumptions and misperceptions surrounding poverty and how it can be eradicated. Using randomized control trials (RCTs), Banerjee and Duflo demonstrate how paying attention to evidence can lead to accurate and startling assessments of what impacts the poor and what doesn't. Whether you are a philanthropist, government official, or NGO worker, Poor Economics offers a revelatory and impassioned perspective that can help you understand the real causes of poverty and how to effectively combat it. Published in 2011, this pathbreaking book continues to be a relevant and influential read for anyone looking to make a positive impact on the world.
