Wide ranging in scope, this book is a comprehensive introduction to fundamental issues in housing, for students taking courses as diverse as urban geography and construction. It is non-technical in its approach and uses numerous articles to illustrate material covered. Each chapter discusses the essential aspects of the particular topic, then presents case studies as articles (most originally published in Public Service & Local Government Journal) for study. The chapter then rounds off with questions for consideration. * Clearly structured introductory text is ideal for students learning the basics of housing* Questions included at the end of each chapter help with consolidation of learning and understanding* Comprehensive coverage of all the issues involved, from crime to tenant co-operatives. - from Amzon
