Reviews

A stunning dialogue between ethnography and poverty policy, Stretched Thin takes risks to chronicle the messy moral incongruities that lay at the basis of welfare reform. Sandra Morgen, Joan Acker, and Jill Weigt urge us to face the myths we so readily accept about work, family, and poverty. They have written a classic that will stand the test of time. Carol Stack, author of All Our Kin and Call To Home
