Abstract
Book abstract: The book includes a selection of essays from leading figures in the voluntary and academic sectors. These highlight the distinctive features of Scotland’s experience of poverty and the extent to which reserved and devolved policies have contributed to progress in tackling it. The book concludes with a discussion on how policy needs to develop if poverty in Scotland is finally to become a thing of the past.
