"In general, Arrighi has written a valuable book with sound observations on welfare and poverty. Her recommendations for changes in public policy are equally valuable."-Social Work With Groups "For those who want to learn more about homelessness and what it is like and what may be done about it, the book provides useful information."-Issues in Child Abuse Accusations ?For those who want to learn more about homelessness and what it is like and what may be done about it, the book provides useful information.?-Issues in Child Abuse Accusations ?In general, Arrighi has written a valuable book with sound observations on welfare and poverty.

Reseña del editor:
Rejecting those who urge a bootstrap approach to people living in extreme poverty on the edge of society, sociologist Barbara Arrighi makes an eloquent, compassionate plea for empathy and collective responsibility toward those for whom either the boots or the straps are missing. This book further offers solutions in consciousness raising, community collaboration, and informed, responsible public policy. The book is a critique of a system that purports to serve yet sometimes impedes the welfare of those who are in need of the basic elements for survival, including affordable shelter. It analyzes the structural factors of poverty and the social psychological costs of being poor and lacking a home. Utilizing interview findings from families who have lived in a shelter in northern Kentucky and from staff members, the book examines the degrading effects of shelter life on women's self-respect and children's development. Rather than an examination of individual pathologies leading to lack of shelter, it centers on women and children living in shelters and offers a sociological study of poverty and the family.
