ECONOMIC GROWTH and wealth creation will never
meet the poor's need for sufficiency and safety.
This guide questions conventional thinking about
wealth and poverty-is the opposite of poverty
really wealth, or is it safety and
sufficiency?
Drawing
on the experience of poor people all over the
world, the author gives voice to those whose views
are rarely sought and shows how we all need to live
more modestly to make poverty history.
Jeremy Seabrook has
written more than 30 books (including A World
Growing Old, BTL 2004), and has worked as a
teacher, social worker, journalist, lecturer and
playwright. He has contributed to many magazines,
including The New Statesman and The
Ecologist.
