Pullulating from a handful of isolated experiments in the 1970s to a sophisticated network of over 140 million borrowers today, microfinance is a synecdoche for global trends toward market-based solutions to social problems.

It features works from leading researchers in the field of microfinance, as well as new names who complement one another's work with a variety of methods and theoretical approaches.
