• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

"Why SNAP Works is a lively, up-to-the-minute account of the history of the program formerly known as food stamps, contested from its onset. Christopher Bosso's compelling explanation of the reasons SNAP survived, and deserves to survive, in the face of so much opposition, makes his book a must-read."--Marion Nestle, author of Slow Cooked: An Unexpected Life in Food Politics "A one-stop shop for SNAP history."--Parke Wilde, Friedman School, Tufts University "What makes this work original and important is that it traces this history in a single volume and brings the story up to present. Bosso has excellent underlying scholarship and also relies on an impressive foundation of primary documents."--Adam Sheingate, author of Building a Business of Politics: The Rise of Political Consulting and the Transformation of American Democracy "This is an original book, and its assertions about SNAP politics and substance are fresh and new."--Rebecca Harris, author of Party Food: A Partisan History of Food & Farming Policy in America
