Bottom Billion,The

Global poverty is falling rapidly, but in fifty or so states the world’s poorest people – the bottom billion – face a tragedy that is growing inexorably worse. Why do these states defy all attempts to help them?
In his award winning bestseller, Paul Collier pinpoints the issues of corruption, political instability and resource management that lie at the root of the problem, and offers hard-nosed solutions and real hope for a way of solving one of the great crises facing the world today.
