"Finally finished this piece after being postponed reading it for almost two years. David Bornstein is a real story teller imo,- he eloquently captures the journey of Grameen Bank from time to time in different decades and smartly showcases what challenges and opportunities that came up in every cycle of Grameen's lives. For those who wants to learn the concept of social entrepreneurs in practice,- I will absolutely recommend this book."
"The Grameen Bank is an amazing project to learn about. This book not only explores the mission and operations of Grameen, but in a way that keeps you turning the pages and enjoying the book for the great work of non-fiction writing that it is."
"An interesting balance of personal stories and organizational history. The bank has been around for ages now, but for some reason I didn't know a lot about it. A quick enjoyable read."
