Description
For the last twenty years, Melinda Gates has been on a mission to find solutions for people with the most urgent needs, wherever they live. In "The Moment of Lift," Melinda shares lessons she’s learned from the inspiring people she’s met during her work and travels around the world. She presents the issues that most need our attention, from child marriage to lack of access to contraceptives to gender inequity in the workplace. Throughout, she shows how there has never been more opportunity to change the world and ourselves. Writing with emotion, candor, and grace, she introduces us to remarkable women and shows the power of connecting with one another. When we lift others up, they lift us up, too.
