Review
Entertaining, well written and refreshingly free of management jargon, this is an engaging contribution to the debate on development. William Keegan, Senior Economics Commentator, The Observer --The Observer
Make Poverty Business will revolutionise how people think about corporate social responsibility. No CEO should be without this book. Alex Singleton, Director-General, The Globalisation Institute --The Globalisation Institute
This is a savvy, eminently useful book that should be in the hands of global business managers and development agency staff alike. Craig Wilson and Peter Wilson go beyond the anecdotal evidence for tapping the consumer and outsourcing potential of the poor. In clear, no-nonsense language, they provide a roadmap of new angles, hidden pitfalls, and profitable shortcuts. They blend their first-hand, hard-won experience in developing nations with nuanced research by some of the world's leading development thinkers. Page for page, this book represents a very good deal - both for the poor harried managers in today's globalizing enterprises, and for the poor themselves, who will benefit from its impact. Joseph S. O'Keefe, writer in residence, The Brookings Institution --Brookings Institution
