Economic inequality is a defining issue of our time, with a handful
of individuals in the United States today owning more wealth than
half the population in the country. What are the psychological
consequences of living in a profoundly unequal society? This
comprehensive textbook is among the first to examine poverty,
wealth, and economic inequality from a psychological perspective.
Written by two leading scholars in the field, it provides an
intersectional analysis of the impact of economic inequality on
cognitive, emotional, interpersonal, intergroup, physiological, and
health outcomes. Students are introduced to the diverse methods
used to study poverty, wealth, and economic inequality and the
strengths and weaknesses of various approaches, while the text
focuses on solutions at the individual, community, and national
levels to restore optimism and encourage action. Chapter features
include exercises and reflection questions that help students think
critically about the implications of research findings for their
own lives.
