Economist Jeffrey Sachs brings a lifetime of scholarship and experience to the complex problem of the wealth and poverty of nations. He reviews two centuries of history, explaining the reasons behind the uneven dispersal of wealth, and provides a holistic way to assess a nation's resources. Sachs is no ivory-tower thinker; he has been to the places he writes about, has worked with governments and NGOs, and has seen firsthand the devastating effects of poverty and poor sanitation, as well as the great benefits of roads and power grids. Sachs's how-and-why book about changing the conditions for much of the world's poor offers hope that this is not an unsolvable problem.

Industry reviews
"A solid, reasonable argument in which the dismal science offers a brightening prospect for the world's poor." Kirkus (01/15/2005)
"THE END OF POVERTY is a beguiling read, earnest and honest and bursting with energy and confidence...." Times Literary Supplement - Stein Ringen (06/24/2005)
"The book is brilliant and impassioned; when you finish reading it, you will not only want to believe in Sachs' ability to eradicate poverty by 2025, you will want to join him in the effort." Bloomsbury Review - Amy Feldman
