Recenzii
"Introduction to Housing is the A to Z on the social, political, and economic dimensions of housing. It is encyclopedic in its scope, providing a combination of foundational knowledge about housing while also covering a number of specialized topics in depth. Written in a clear, accessible style, the book features the work of top experts in the field. Introduction to Housing is a one-stop shop for housing students and instructors, covering housing from the household scale to the global, from market to community perspectives."
Edward G. Goetz, Ph.D., Professor, University of Minnesota and Author of The One-Way Street of Integration: Fair Housing and the Pursuit of Racial Justice in American Cities (Cornell University Press)
"Introduction to Housing is a comprehensive treatment of housing policy in the US and globally. Chapters reach back in history to explain how today’s housing policy is rooted in colonial systems, outlining housing’s complex financing and social impacts, including the racial dynamics of housing and its intertwined relationship to the economy, health, and disaster planning. Anyone wanting to understand housing policy beginning to end should read this book."
Rachel Garshick Kleit, Ph.D., Professor, The Ohio State University
"Introduction to Housing is an essential resource for students and experts alike. This collection of comprehensive, succinct and jargon-free essays covers the full gamut of housing issues in the United States and provides important insights internationally as well."
Alex Schwartz, Ph.D., Professor, The New School, Author of Housing Policy in the United States (Routledge)
"In an exceptionally well-presented, organized, and accessible volume, the editors of Introduction to Housing have assembled an excellent and diverse group of housing policy scholars from around the world to provide a nuanced and comprehensive introduction to the rich and complex topic of housing with helpful international comparisons. I highly recommend it!"
