Muhammad Yunus leads a movement that has lifted millions from poverty. Here he describes how he created microcredit - collateral-free lending and savings - and other business services to the poorest citizens, particularly women. Yunus lays out the path to this extraordinary vision and success: from his youth as the son of a small jeweler in East Pakistan to his later years leading Grameen and driving global social change.
