People in Poverty and Academics Thinking Together
« The groundbreaking search for useable knowledge of poverty and exclusion described in this unique book demonstrates the role that can be played in the formulation of that knowledge by academics, by professionals, and by the poor themselves.
Here, at last, is a deeply serious and innovative effort to blend the special perspectives of academics, professionals, and the poor into a new and respectful synthesis.
This book demonstrates what it takes to really hear and use what each participant (and especially the poor) brings to the table.
Every reader – student, teacher, researcher, professional, activist, policy maker – will think differently about what contributes to knowledge after reading this book. »
