Great book

Poor Economics is an essential read for anyone interested in poverty, development, and policy-making. It challenges traditional assumptions and provides a data-driven approach to understanding why poverty persists. While it doesn't offer a single grand solution, it convincingly argues that small, well-designed interventions—backed by rigorous evidence—can make a real difference.
