The Cost of Being Poor Jonathan Z. Smith

The Cost of Being Poor Jonathan Z. SmithLooks at the daily lives of poor people to demonstrate that the poor pay more than others, by both monetary and other measures, to meet basic needs.

The Cost of Being Poor rectifies this problem by examining both the noneconomic and the often overlooked economic costs faced by residents
