Summary: "Social security programs in the United States have grown so rapidly that in spite of the numerous publications relating to social security programs, there is still a lack of knowledge on the part of many about their essential features. This book, therefore, has been written primarily for the person interested in obtaining a brief overview of the social security program. It is not intended to be an analysis of the many issues around social security measures." -- From the preface.
