Building on the past - Visions of housing futures
Building on the Past looks at the big questions affecting the future of housing as a key indicator of social and economic wellbeing in the 21st century. The book brings together specially commissioned contributions by leading housing specialists who explore a wide range of themes and issues affecting the prospects for the coming twenty years or more. The book is designed to stimulate and contribute to informed debate about possible housing futures and what can be done to influence what happens. It is presented as a 'think piece' on the future of housing policy and therefore written in an open and accessible style. Building on the Past analyzes the implications of current trends to consider how markets and governments might respond to the challenges ahead.
