I still need to read How the Catholic Church Built Western Civilization
I'm glad you're liking Poor Economics. Some of those development econ books bleed together for me, but I think there were a lot of really interesting insights about how people navigate that level of scarcity.

Is Poor Economics a statist book?

Probably to some degree
My recollection is that it's mostly about how very poor people adapt to their environments: how they manage risk, credit, savings, etc.
