About this deal

The author will drive profit through her sloppy and intellectually dishonest labour for years to come. I misunderstood the aim of this book and thought that it would provide ideas to facilitate discussions between people with different perspectives in the hope of bringing people together in a deeper understanding.

A better view is that we should as much as possible see our common humanity - in all humans; attempt to treat all people fairly and with respect; know that while it is difficult to understand each other, it is never impossible, no matter what our race, colour or creed. And all of us, the author urges, must become “poverty abolitionists…refusing to live as unwitting enemies of the poor.
