Although in the UK and other industrial countries, wealth and affluence are widely perceived to be growing, this is not the same as genuine human development. "Poverty in Plenty" draws on the work of leading research institutes and campaigning groups, to assess the real state of society and of human development in the UK. The results it presents are far from reassuring, in absolute terms and for the trends revealed. The contributions show how widespread poverty is in many of things that make life worthwhile: education, diet, health, mobility, participation, consumption. The results will be startling and of vital importance to all those working on social issues in the public and voluntary sectors, as well as many students and general readers wanting the truth behind the public statistics.
