Originally published in 1987 and now re-issued with a new preface,
this book examines attempts by successive individuals and
governments to overcome slum conditions and homelessness, to reform
landlord-tenant relations and to provide sound modern dwellings
with full amenities for those who need them. Its focus is on how
those responsible for public housing concentrated their energies on
buildings rather than management, on property rather than people,
in sharp distinction to the women who played such an innovative and
humanizing role in the early days of housing reform. Efforts to
resolve public housing problems are examined in a study of twenty
housing estates, and of the initiatives that local authorities have
taken to reverse the sometimes overwhelming decay.
