Until relatively recently, the self-employed have been something of a Cinderella group in public policy. They are excluded from various parts of the benefit system and even the official poverty figures show some results excluding the self-employed on the basis that no-one quite knows what the living standards of the low-income self-employed actually are. It is against this background that this book seeks to broaden our understanding of the low-income self-employed.
