Book Description

This Bloomsbury Academic Collection consists of a wide range of classic titles in history from the early modern period to the end of the 20th century.

Product Description

In the past, accounts of housing were dominated by the analysis of the problems of slum property at the bottom of the market, and the way in which public housing emerged from attempts to ameliorate the worst conditions, in an apparently inevitable process. This title questions this perception by focussing on the process of development, architectural forms, the pattern of ownership, property management and control, and public policy.
