For the first time in history, it is within our reach to eradicate world poverty and the suffering it brings.
A billion people struggle to live each day on less than many of us pay for a bottle of water.
Nearly ten million children die each year from poverty-related causes.
Our current response to world poverty is not only insufficient but ethically indefensible.
If we are not to turn our backs on a fifth of the world's population, we must become part of the solution.
This is the right time to ask yourself: `What should I be doing to help?'
Peter Singer's unflinching, persuasive and rigorous book is a call to action. It not only suggests what you should be doing, but also shows you how you can do it.
It shows you the life you can save.
