All You Need to Know about Poverty: Causes, Effects, and Mitigation

By: Adele, Charlotte

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.

Poverty has many causes, some of them very basic. Some experts suggest, for instance, that the world has too many people, too few jobs, and not enough food. But such basic causes are quite intractable and not easily eradicated. In most cases, the causes and effects of poverty interact, so that what makes people poor also creates conditions that keep them poor. This book contains some factors that may lead to poverty including overpopulation, political corruption, crimes, discrimination, their effects, and the possible solutions.
