Social Problems and Public Policy

This classic volume was originally designed as an introduction to social science perspectives on a broad range of social issues in American society, specifi cally the complex social problems of the 1960s. Because the volume is structured as a survey, it is neither exhaustive or definitive. It does provide a wide range of information about these problems, as well as the any different policy initiatives that were developed to cope with them. Readers can learn a great deal about the common themes, predilections and quandaries that characterized nited States responses to the complex problems of the 1960s and the patterns of inequality nd injustice prevalent at that time
