Twenty-Two Cents: Muhammad Yunus and the Village Bank

After witnessing the devastating effects of poverty in his home country of Bangladesh, economist Muhammad Yunus developed an innovative solution: micro-lending. This biography follows his journey from a small experiment lending just twenty-two cents to forty-two women to founding the Grameen Bank, which has helped millions escape poverty worldwide. The book reveals how one person's determination to challenge traditional banking systems changed the global approach to ending poverty.
