Description

Forgotten: The Working Poor in the United States sets out both factual and ethical discussions of working poverty. The book will include definitions, numbers and demographics; causes of working poverty; a review and critique of resources available to the working poor; and a discussion of solutions. The book is threaded through with interviews and personal case studies.

Forgotten will be a very useful resource for researchers, teachers and students, and is also designed to be of practical use as a reference for policy makers at all levels, from small town administrators, to Federal Government.
