About this Talk:  In a follow-up to his now-legendary TED2006 presentation, Hans Rosling demonstrates how developing countries are pulling themselves out of poverty. He shows us the next generation of his Trendalyzer software -- which analyzes and displays data in amazingly accessible ways, allowing people to see patterns previously hidden behind mountains of stats. (Ten days later, he announced a deal with Google to acquire the software.) He also demos Dollar Street, a program that lets you peer in the windows of typical families worldwide living at different income levels. Be sure to watch straight through to the (literally) jaw-dropping finale.

As I can't yet find a YouTube version I've embedded this in my blog here . 

First things first Department...

If you haven't seen Hans' TED2006 presentation do, do, do watch this one first !

I'd wager a fair bit that these pieces will turn your perception of global development on its head!
