The landmark exploration of economic prosperity and how the world can escape from extreme poverty for the world's poorest citizens, from one  of the world's most renowned economists

Hailed by Time as one of the world's hundred most influential people, Jeffrey D. Sachs is renowned for his work around the globe advising economies in crisis.

Marrying vivid storytelling with rigorous analysis, Sachs lays out a clear conceptual map of the world economy.
