Recenzii

". . . a short, highly readable study of how ideology works to reproduce social inequality . . . powerful social critique not likely to get a hearing in official policy circles." -- American Anthropologist
"Joanne Passaro contributes to a more complex portrait of homelessness by laying out an impressive set of topics for consideration... Passaro has laid some important and useful foundations for a more theoretical approach to the analysis of homelessness." -- Contemporary Sociology
