Reviews for The Routledge Handbook of Housing Policy and Planning

The Routledge Handbook of Housing Policy and Planning is much more than a handbook. It brings together insightful essays on numerous critical housing issues by many of the leading scholars in the field. The essays examine housing and its connections to broader societal issues from an international perspective that encompasses a wide range of ideological perspectives and methodological approaches. -Alex Schwartz, Professor of Public and Urban Policy, The New School, USA
