Kathleen Blee and Dwight Billings examine the social dynamics of persistently poor rural communities through the history of Clay County, an especially po or section of the Eastern Kentucky mountains in Appalachia. This book makes an important contribution to basic research on inequality pointing to the shortcomings of treating symptomatic problems of low income, while failing to address systemic ones at a time when American policymakers are struggling to design and implement effective programs to move people from welfare to work.

Arthur and Susan Holcombe trace the evolution of their thinking about Third World poverty-reduction strategies from their graduate study of economic and social development at the Uni-versity of Pittsburgh through careers with the United Nations and nongovernmental organiza-tions (TPAF and Oxfam America). They worked and lived in East Africa, Afghanistan, Pakistan, the South Pacific, Sudan, and China. Their work took them to Tibet, Gaza, the Andes, Cambo-dia, and elsewhere.Their college years at Harvard and Mount Holyoke gave them a global perspec-tive. In this memoire they describe the political, economic, social, demographic, and environmental factors influencing poverty and identify key programs focused on human development. They conclude with a consideration of conditions prevailing in countries where they earlier worked. In 1965, experts saw poverty reduction as top-down, with foreign aid chan-neled through government programs. Priority was given to investments in physical and social infrastructure. Over time the philosophy of the "Washington Consen-sus" reigned, giving priority to markets, foreign private investment, exploitation of natural resources, and de-emphasis of social services and the traditional agricul-tural sector, which should have been the starting point for human development. Arthur and Susan saw this foreign influence as counterproductive to sustainable development. In the 1990s, they saw in action the Chinese comprehensive ap-proach to rural development, which produced effective poverty reduction: over 7 million rural families moved out of abject poverty after 1979. This nationally led "China Model" has lessons for other Third World countries. In their lives and careers, Arthur and Susan met with serendipitous opportuni-ties that led to the roads they took. They hope their children and grandchildren will also take roads that can lead to rewarding careers and life experiences.

How far can you get on two tacos, one Dr. Pepper, and a little bit of conversation? What happens when you're broke and you need to get to a new job, an ailing parent, a powwow, college, or a funeral on the other side of the country? And after decades of globalization, what kind of America will you glimpse through the window on your way? For five years, Kath Weston rode the bus to find out. Traveling Light is not just another book about people stuck in poverty. Rather, it's a book about how people move through poverty and their insights into the sweeping economic changes that affect us all. The result is a moving meditation on living poor in the world's wealthiest nation.

A change in the transport sector's current approach to selecting rural road investments is warranted. A proposed approach builds on some of the poverty-focused "hybrid" methods found in recent rural road appraisals, recognizing that an important share of the benefits to the poor from rural roads cannot be measured in monetary terms.
