poverty, inequality, and inequity using a unique and broad mix of
concepts, measurement methods, statistical tools, software, and
practical exercises. Most of the book's measurement and statistical
tools have been programmed in DAD, a well established and widely
available free software program that has been tailored especially
for income distribution analysis and is used by scholars,
researchers, and analysts in nearly 100 countries worldwide. It
requires basic understanding of calculus and statistics. There are
