Welfare as We Knew It: A Political History of the American Welfare State
Noble, Charles (Professor of Politcal Science, Professor of Politcal Science, California State University, Long Beach)
This book explains why the US welfare state does less than other Western welfare states to help people in need. It shows how deeply-rooted structural, institutional, and organizational factors limit the possibilities for change, and suggests what social reformers might do about it.
