Review

We have always understood that the real antipoverty and growth strategy is to build up peoples assets, their financial capital, knowledge, and ability to discern. But then, few of our policies get directed that way. Signe-Mary McKernan and Michael Sherraden are two of the nations leaders in asset policy and research, and their judgment and wisdom, as well as that of the coauthors they have recruited, are shown in this outstanding volume. It details honestly and in depth both what we know and, as importantly, what we do not know about how assets are accumulated by low and moderate income families. --C. Eugene Steuerle, Vice President, the Peter G. Peterson Foundation Low Income Families Asset Building and Low-Income Families Paperback
