No mention could be made of one of the major biologists who pioneered ecology. That biologist was Charles Darwin.

Issues of Poverty

“Issues of Poverty” is comprised of four lessons with two overarching goals.

Second, the lessons provide evidence to show that poverty, far from being random, disproportionately affects Americans who have traditionally experienced oppression—African Americans, Latinos, immigrants and children.
