An endorsement of Life on the Breadline from Anthony G Reddie, Professor of Black Theology, Unversity of Oxford. It reads: Chris Shannahan's Life on the Breadline lifts the lid on the roots of the scandal of rampant poverty that exists in one of the richest nations in the world. He shows that structural poverty has not occurred by accident and so the solutions to this multi-faceted problem need to be intentional, prophetic and sustained.
