Starting from the premise that an integral understanding of all dimensions of urban poverty is essential for the formulation of meaningful urban policies, this book - based on a case study of a slum in Madras - provides a critical but balanced account of the process and impact of urban policy and planning. The author paints a vivid portrait of the urban poor covering: the culture, praxis and survival problems of slum dwellers; their difficulties in accessing schools and hospitals; the differential impact of slum policies on men and women; and their coping strategies.
