The Economics of Poverty

The goal of this introductory economics textbook is to use economic analysis to determine the causes and solutions to one of the United States' most vexing social problems—poverty. Using examples of orthodox and heterodox economic theories, The Economics of Poverty fills a gap in the traditional discussion around poverty, focusing on how our economy contributes to and can solve the problem of poverty. Unlike many Economics textbooks, this book is written in plain language that welcomes readers into the complex conversation about poverty. Relying on current data and helpful graphs and charts, The Economics of Poverty provides students with a lens through which to view the complexities of poverty as a social problem with economic roots. This in-depth exploration of two major economic theories’ response to poverty models the behavior of actual economists, who must do more than just crunch the numbers in their search for answers. Students learn how to think like an economist and use the common toolset from a friendly voice.

Palestra Pandemonium

The most famous basketball tournament in the history of college basketball is the Big Five. And the Big Five was played in the most hallowed halls of college play: the Palestra. Now, for the first time, a complete story of this Philadelphia rivalry is revealed. Robert Lyons offers the story of the Big Five from its very beginnings in 1955. At that time, many of the Big Five schools—La Salle University, University of Pennsylvania, St. Joseph's University, Temple University and Villanova University—weren't even talking to each other, and everyone predicted the tournament would end before it began. Conducting interviews with coaches and players—including famed Temple coach Harry Litwack's...
