Poor Economics

It's not entirely clear whether this is just a book or a book plus multimedia experience, but either way Poor Economics by Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Duflo is a fantastic resource. I have the book on order – the blurb says:

“Their book is radical in its rethinking of the economics of poverty, but
also entirely practical in the suggestions it offers. Through a careful
analysis of a very rich body of evidence, including the hundreds of
randomized control trials that Banerjee and Duflo’s lab has pioneered,
they show why the poor, despite having the same desires and abilities as
anyone else, end up with entirely different lives.”

Meanwhile, the website has videos, data and links for each chapter – well worth a browse.
