Description: Poverty and Progress : Realities and Myths About Global Poverty, Paperback by Lal, Deepak, ISBN 1938048849, ISBN-13 9781938048845, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US The greatest reduction of mass poverty in human history has occurred during the current era of globalization. The world’s poor are now catching up with the rich at a rapid pace in terms of human well-being–health, education, and life spans. In his new book, Poverty and Progress: Realities and Myths about Global Poverty, renowned development economist Deepak Lal draws on 50 years of experience around the globe to describe developing-country realities and rectify misguided notions about economic progress. Unique among books that have emerged in recent years on world poverty, Poverty and Progress directly confronts intellectual fads of the West and dismantles a wide range of myths, numbers games, and faulty ideas that have obscured an astounding achievement: the unprecedented spread of economic progress around the world that is eliminating the scourge of mass poverty.
