Population and Poverty in the Developing World (Hardcover)

The increasing gap between developed and developing world will be one of the most important themes of the 21st century. Without wealth, access to the continuing technological revolution is impossible; without wealth, inequalities are inevitable. This volume concentrates on all aspects of the population and poverty problem: what poverty is, what effects poverty has, what creates poverty, and what can be done to eradicate it. By collecting together papers from a variety of disciplines, and by combining detailed empirical study with the necessary theoretical frameworks, the editors are able to clearly identify the most important themes and potential solutions to a problem that the world cannot afford to ignore.
