Description
 

A candid, methodical look at one of the nations fastest growing problems (the number of ghettos, barrios, and slums in the United States has more than doubled since 1970). Jargowsky (political economy, U. of Texas, Dallas) analyzes the causes of ghetto formation, while clarifying the importance of trends such as changes in the labor and housing markets that have fostered income inequity and segregated the rich from the poor. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
