Description

This new edition of Patterson’s widely used book carries the story of battles over poverty and social welfare through what the author calls the “amazing 1990s,” years of extraordinary performance of the economy. He explores issues arising from the economic phenomenon—increasing inequality and demands for use of an improved poverty definition.
