This volume represents the proceedings of the second in a series of
discussion meetings convened by The Royal Society with the aim of
reviewing the ways in which human needs and national expectations
can be served by technological developments in the 21st century. "A
Global Strategy for Housing in the Third Millennium" provides an
authoritative account of the demand for housing in rich and poor
countries, and shows how that demand may be satisfied by well
co-ordinated social and technological policies. It provides basic
principles in good housing design and social attitudes towards
housing. The contributors - leading authorities from North America,
Europe and Japan - predict future contributions of technology to
housing for basic needs and comfort in temperate and extreme
climates. New materials, construction processes and the increasing
use of electronics in building services and overall planning are
also central to this book. The wide range of viewpoints from which
future technical developments in housing are approached should make
this book beneficial for those professionally concerned with the
planning, construction and management of housing.
