内容説明

The recent increase in poverty reflects the worsening of economic conditions since the onset of the economic recession in December 2007. Many expect poverty to rise further next year, and it will likely remain comparatively high even after the economy begins to recover. The incidence of poverty varies widely across the population according to age, education, labour force attachment, family living arrangements, and area of residence, among other factors. This book examines the trends, issues and measurements on income, poverty and health insurance coverage in the United States.
