{"product_id":"poverty-and-social-exclusion-in-maria-gannon-9781447332176","title":"Poverty and Social Exclusion in the UK: Volume 1 - The Nature and Extent of the Problem","description":"The largest UK research study on poverty and social exclusion ever conducted reveals startling levels of deprivation. 18m people are unable to afford adequate housing; 14m can't afford essential household goods; and nearly half the population have some form of financial insecurity. Defining poverty as those whose lack of resources forces them to live below a publicly agreed minimum standard, this text provides unique and detailed insights into the nature and extent of poverty and social exclusion in the UK today. Written by a team of leading academics, the book reports on the extent and nature of poverty for different social groups: older and younger people; parents and children; ethnic groups; men and women; disabled people; and across regions through the recent period of austerity. It reflects on where government policies have made an impact and considers potential future developments. A companion volume Poverty and Social Exclusion in the UK Volume 2 focuses on different aspects of poverty and social exclusion identified in the study.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Maria Gannon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1447332172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781447332176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Policy Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.60d","brand":"Maria Gannon","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44123692859647,"sku":"9781447332176","price":48.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_32e57b84-0afc-4a71-a10f-d8ddda6bfb61.jpg?v=1687432314","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/poverty-and-social-exclusion-in-maria-gannon-9781447332176","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
