''Old Age Pensions And The Aged Poor: A Proposal'' is a book written by Charles Booth in 1899. The book proposes a system of old age pensions for the elderly poor in England. Booth argues that the current system of poor relief is inadequate and that a pension system would provide a more dignified and effective means of support for the elderly. He details the costs and benefits of such a system and provides examples of successful pension schemes in other countries. The book is a significant contribution to the debate on social welfare in the late 19th century and remains relevant today as discussions on pension reform continue.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
