This major new textbook provides students with a critical understanding of poverty and social exclusion in relation to wealth, rather than separate from it. The four main sections are devoted to (a) key concepts and issues (b) 'people and place' (poverty and wealth across different groups and situations) (c) the role of the state, and (d) prospects for the future. Designed with the needs of students in mind, the book includes useful chapter summaries, illustrative boxes and diagrams, and pointers to relevant websites and other sources of further information.
