Book Reviews of Banker To The Poor: Micro-Lending and the Battle Against World Poverty

Book Review: "Banker to the Poor" sets a great example for the rest of the world leaders
Summary: 5 Stars

In this world of anarchy and chaos, one wonders why aren't the leaders of today utilizing the path Mo Yunus took to change the world around him. This book serves as a great mentor and guide to all those who believe in making a change and creating a difference with their intellect, passion, perserverance and relationships. I wish that all the poor countries in the world gain some ideas from Mr. Yunus. A very engrossing read. You have to finish the book to read through Mr. Yunus's journey in its entirety. The book is simple, sweet and takes you through all the cities and towns of Bangladesh, gives you an insight into the mindsets of both men and women of that society...the struggles, the pains, the successes and the accomplishments. As a reader, I truly wished and prayed that there are many more men and women out there in the world with Mo Yunus's spirit.
