Land of Hope, Land of Want by Violeta Lopez-Gonzaga, Ph.D.

A fine example of a work done by a Filipino scholar playing a contributory role in clarifying the development and originating causes of present social problems in the Philippines in general, particularly in Negros Occidental. I wish that other Filipino scholars would follow the lead of Gonzaga in making their inter disciplinary expertise come to bear upon the prevalent social problems oppressing the people of our country, and exert greater efforts toward seeking solutions for them through their empirical studies which may serve as a basis for the formulation of policies more attuned toward improving the social and economic conditions of the Negrenses in particular and the Filipinos as a whole.
A Philippine import. Limited copies available.
