Book Review:
This book is a powerful and humanizing collection that gives a face and a voice to the often-abstract concept of poverty. Edited by Nobel Laureate Muhammad Yunus, the founder of the Grameen Bank, it goes beyond statistics to present the real-life stories of individuals like Jorimon, showcasing their struggles, resilience, and aspirations.
True to Yunus's life's work, this book is not just about documenting hardship but about recognizing the potential and dignity of every individual living in poverty. It provides profound insight into the systemic barriers people face and underscores the transformative power of microfinance and social business. ''Jorimon and Others'' is an essential, moving, and eye-opening read for anyone interested in economic development, social justice, and understanding the true human impact of poverty.
