Poverty and Hunger

(4) YA Mapping Global Issues series. This book examines poverty from a global perspective, defining the term and presenting possible solutions. Using an abundance of statistics, Senker compares countries where hunger is most severe with more prosperous regions and discusses various causes (e.g., debt, disease). Maps, sidebars, and photographs clarify and add interest to the text, but the dull layout is off-putting. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind.
