Consider Banker to the Poor by Muhammad Yunus. Recommended by 2 sources.
“First-person, anecdote-rich narrative that follows Yunus and the early Grameen Bank experiments, mixing operational detail with portraits of borrowers and grassroots problem-solving. Useful for getting a tangible sense of how microloans were delivered, the group-lending mechanics, and the personal conviction that drove the project. Limitation: recurring anecdotes and a consistently optimistic, sometimes polemical tone mean the book glosses over hard quantitative critique and can feel repetitive; readers wanting systematic, data-heavy evaluation will find it thin.”
