This acclaimed book powerfully depicts a side of the welfare experience rarely seen, dispelling the myth that only an urban underclass-the center of most policy debate-struggles on welfare. Rank's juxtaposition of numbers and faces demonstrates that welfare recipients share much in common with the rest of the population.
Mark Robert Rank is a sociologist and associate professor in the George Warren Brown School of Social Work at Washington University, Saint Louis.
