Charlie Robertson Interview Episode 67

In this episode Matt Crawford speaks with author Charlie Robertson about his book, The Time Traveling Economist. Why is it that some countries in Africa and South Asia are still stuck in poverty? Robertson culls through the data and shows us what needs to be addressed and how they can move forward and prosper. Data however can be inuring, and we lose what it represents, which is of course, people. Roberston includes individual accounts and connects us to those numbers in a way that is easy to understand but most importantly, personal.
