At the turn of the new millennium, the United Nations determined that world poverty would be halved by 2015. Drawing on sources from around the world, as well as on hard facts, the author challenges the assumption that wealth overcomes poverty, and demonstrates that the opposite of poor is not rich but self-reliant.
