Poverty

Silver, Jim 1946- (Author).

Summary: Illustrates that poverty is about more than a shortage of money: it is complex and multifaceted and can profoundly damage the human spirit. At the centre of this analysis are Canada's neo-liberal economic policies, which have created conditions that make a growing number of people vulnerable to low income, vanishing public services and poor physical health.
