Synopsis

Anna Leon-Guerrero has written an accessible and insightful text which encourages students to play an active part in their own communities. Social Problems: Community, Policy, and Social Action  provides an awareness that our personal experiences with problems that may arise in families, the workplace, health and medicine, the media, cities and suburbs, or with drug abuse, poverty, crime, the environment, and war and terrorism are caused by structural or social forces. Unlike other texts, the book offers a balanced view through examining both the problems and attempts to resolve these pervasive social issues.
