<P>This book discusses a better way to fight poverty with savings groups. In savings groups, members put what they can in a communal pot and make loans to individual members for needs like buying food to survive the "lean season" before the harvest, building a business, investing in livestock, or paying school fees. The groups are simple, extremely low cost, self-managing and spread virally. Today, there are savings groups in 100,000 villages in 65 countries. </P>
