This wide-ranging exploration of the key contemporary relationships between social change and housing is both policy-oriented and theoretical; drawing on a group of internationally-respected academics. It is also multidisciplinary; incorporating sociology; economics; social policy and human geography perspective. Its international perspective is rooted in its examination of issues such as economic insecurity and instability; social diversity; financial and social exclusion; sustainability; privatisation and state legitimacy; the interaction of the global and the local across three continents.

Consummate illustrations for an epic of chivalry and wonderBy JabbaSure; Homers Odysseus may have known the ways of many cities and the minds of many men; to say nothing of various monsters and enchantresses; but he had nothing on the reader who follows Ariostos assorted heroes and heroines through the rollicking; raucous; kaleidoscopic; chivalric-epic world of "Orlando Furioso." The prospective reader of that massive opus may turn for an overview or foretaste of its attractions to this comprehensive pictorial treatment by consummate illustrator Gustave Dore. True; Dore may sometimes be thought to slight the satirical; tongue-in-cheek; and light-hearted aspects of the poem in favor of its epic sweep and moody solemnity. But his is a worthy visual accompaniment to one of the most astonishingly rich and splendidly entertaining masterpieces in all of world literature; and to its imagination; romance; sensuality; and adventurousness he certainly does full justice.1 of 2 people found the following review helpful.
