Title: Plain language a welcome when discussing poverty and welfare
Review: Finally, a book that discusses the subject of poverty, welfare dependency and our economic system by using the plain, spoken English language. Gone are the doctorial essays on social stratification, mind-numbing research statistics, and twenty letter words. This book provides a superb overview of the subject without it being too elementary. She uses renown experts on the subject, and than paraphrases/summarizes their conclusions in easy to understand language. As a teacher of poverty at a community college, it was a welcome relief to assign readings from this book because the students were able to grasp the subject so much better than with textbooks written for people already having a good foundation in economics, sociology and scientific inquiry. Thank you Karen Seccombe for telling it like it is, and doing it in language that most can understand.
