Two hundred years ago, 90% of human beings lived in conditions we now classify as extreme poverty.
Since the emergence of capitalism, this figure has plummeted from 90% to 9%.

When curious minds grapple with the question, how has prosperity replaced poverty in so many places? They discover the miracles of free enterprise-eloquently described in Antonella Marty 's important new book-including how the profit motive fosters cooperation and innovation, all to satisfy human wants and needs.
