3.0 out of 5 stars This is about domestic poverty, April 14, 2000
By 
Woolpit (Peabody, MA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Poverty: Opposing Viewpoints (Library Binding)
This is a good book that is extremely fair and unprejudiced in presenting the views of people who aren't fair or unprejudiced. Actually, I read this book because I thought it was about Third World poverty (and there is one, called simply "Third World", that is), but nevertheless this book highlights the fact that there is some poverty even in America, a fact most of the essayists acknowledge, and propose various solutions to remedy the problem. Every major opinion is represented, and each is given equal time. The only problem I see here is that many of the essays are a bit outdated (many written during the Depression Era, when domestic poverty was a much worse problem).
