Jeffrey Sachs draws on his remarkable 25 years' experience to offer a thrilling and inspiring vision of the keys to economic success in the world today. Marrying vivid storytelling with acute analysis, he sets the stage by drawing a conceptual map of the world economy and explains why, over the past 200 years, wealth and poverty have diverged and evolved across the planet, and why the poorest nations have been so markedly unable to escape the trap of poverty. Sachs tells the remarkable stories of his own work in Bolivia, Poland, Russia, India, China and Africa to bring readers with him to an understanding of the different problems countries face. In the end, readers will be left not with an understanding of how daunting the world's problems are, but how solvable they are - and why making the effort is both our moral duty and in our own interests.

Firstly to end poverty whatever little we are doing(IMF, world bank, UNCTAd and 100s Un subsidiaries, wHO) so far should be right. that in itself will solve poverty ,if not by the next winter season, but atleast before they fell another 1 million tress in Indonesia to grow cash crops instead of providing high protein diet.

the only way to end poverty, war and population explosion in india, china etc is first and foremost American President mr Trump accepts that all economist, Policy leaders, IPCC climate experts are lairs wiht fake knowledge. He can overnight stop 30 million homeless (citizens of food stamps) being exploited or used as door mats if he does only one thing. Ignore all this Federal bank' fake statistics based on fake correlation that trade with china is good.
About author sachs:
A typical dmb a** professors Sachs. they only have communications skill. He has no working knowledge. but they will talk like they have first hand expertise. Just like Al gore on climate studies. He is only having cattle farm but preaches Climate change and laos 'bought ' the Noble peace prize. .Harvard krimes.

all big business are frauding the public especially Big pharma and Big banks, big tech. they are promoting drugs like it is candy's and
toffees or cone ice creams. for example Johnson and Johnson alone spends $3 billion annuals on Tv/print advertisements. This is besides the $10 billion they have to spend to support their marketing/sales staff and overheads. The idea of creating these tv advertisements and print ads is to network' with officials and grease palms to avoid /mitigate risks of patient law suits. for example, a State Secretary's spouse or kid is working for a costal living magazine. JnJ/Pfizer or merck will use their advertisement budget to show their 'support' for the official.

Yesterday cbsnews reported a case of drug recall after complaints against Sanofi on some generic drug for blood pressure. zantac is the name of the drug. This drug has carcinogenic chemicals. this is old drug now in generic 'mode' sold like biscuits. and the typical response "we at sanofi are committed, to patient care, we ensure safety lvls are met
then Sanofi will do damage control 'behind our backs' as their PR lady will know how to assuage d feeling of legal eagles. "we are working closely with regulators" Oh i see. Can we see those vidoe tapes Sanofi inc?
