Economic inequality is a pressing issue of our time, with a small fraction of individuals in the United States holding an astonishing amount of wealth, surpassing the combined wealth of half the nation. The psychological ramifications of inhabiting a profoundly unequal society are a subject of significant interest. This comprehensive textbook stands as one of the pioneering works in exploring poverty, wealth, and economic inequality from a psychological lens. Authored by two esteemed scholars in the field, it offers a comprehensive intersectional analysis of the profound impact of economic inequality on cognitive, emotional, interpersonal, intergroup, physiological, and health outcomes. Students are introduced to a diverse range of methods employed in studying poverty, wealth, and economic inequality, as well as the strengths and limitations of various approaches. The text primarily emphasizes solutions at the individual, community, and national levels to foster optimism and ignite action. Chapter features include thought-provoking exercises and reflection questions that empower students to critically evaluate the implications of research findings and their personal experiences.
