Near Fine. : Non-formal Education in the Charism of Edmund Rice. As new except for faintest age spotting to exterior top page edges. "Today's homeless youth have much in common with the so-called 'street urchins' of the 17th and 18th centuries in Europe. Unemployed they are often hungry, forced to steal or sell drugs or prostitute themselves to survive, and they live quite alienated from mainstream society. In Ireland in 1802 Edmund Rice saw education as a means of improving the desperate plight of these young people...In this book-which is based on studies made of street kids in New York, Lima, Sydney and Brisbane-Brother Paul Wilson addresses this challenge. All those who are concerned with the plight of homeless youth...will find this work insightful, stimulating and provocative." 99 pages. including Bibliography. 5.5x8x.25"
