Robert Hartmann McNamara

Description
This three volume set provides a balanced overview of homelessness in light of the varying perspectives on the topic and explains its linkages to other social issues.

Reviews:
-"Strengths of the set include several chapters that describe research conducted by their author(s), include the 'voices' of homeless persons in their own words, and provide statistical facts about the prevalence of homelessness (both at point-in-time and during a period) or the relative size of different subpopulations (e.g., single men, families with children). . . . there is a good deal of useful information about this social problem as well as efforts to address it . . ." —CHOICE
-". . . this new comprehensive three-volume encyclopedia from Praeger is a welcome and timely addition to the social science literature for Catholics, and students and readers interested in the plight of the homeless. . . . The encyclopedia takes a scholarly approach; chapters are informative and engaging, and its research is first-rate. In all, the encyclopedia is without rival in its depth and scope. This work will fill an important void in the reference literature and it will undoubtedly become the premier reference source on the subject. Bound in attractive and sturdy bindings using high-quality materials, it is highly recommended for all undergraduate, school, and public libraries serving interested readers." —Catholic Library World
