An urgent analysis of global gender inequality and a passionately argued case for change by a pioneer in the movement for women's economic empowerment.
'A compelling and actionable case for unleashing women's economic power.'
MELINDA GATES
'Passionate and timely . . . in a world where so many of us stick to criticising the status quo, it's heartening to read someone willing to offer viable solutions.'
CAROLINE CRIADO-PEREZ, OBSERVER (author of Invisible Women)
