5-0 out of 5 stars Double-Binds, Double Trouble
Vale's marvelously detailed history of public housing in Boston from the early Puritan settlements to the present day tells the story of our "alternating current of compassion and hostility" toward the poor in the U.S.Through his exploration of public housing in Boston, Vale writes a compelling sociological history of the tensions inherent in the American dream of home ownership, government subsidy vs. free enterprise, and most valuable of all explores the ideology of homeownership and its bearing on citizenship.Dense, meditative, often wryly humorous, this is a deeply researched work which yields uncommon insights about mythic American values of community as expressed through public housing and public spaces.Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Great book; classic info
Anyone who enjoyed the boy scout handbook would love this book.It's full of all the diagrams and how-to's I enjoyed as a kid.This one's for grown kids and covers dwellings of every type - temporary to permanent, small to large.Great drawings; I'mso glad I found this book.

5-0 out of 5 stars a must for your survivalist collection
Well written, easy to read, and full of details and pictures. Presented in a clear and concise manner this book will take you naked into the wilderness and give you the basics of survival structures but build you up to a full understanding of large permenant structures. a pleasure to read, recommend to everyone of all age groups.

5-0 out of 5 stars For "boys" of all ages
When I was a child, I would look for this book when I went to the public library. I checked it out frequently and marveled at the lined drawings of various kinds of wilderness dwellings, especially the "Boys Hogan"-a type of hidden shelter built into the side of a hill.No doubt this book became the inspiration of the "forts" we built in the woods and the lean-tos constructed in Boy Scouts.

4-0 out of 5 stars Public housing and social change in Los Angeles
During the 1990s Los Angeles began tearing down public housing projects which represented failed urban policies - but such housing was a popular New Deal program and viewed as a force for positive social change, and we're reminded of the different directions it takes in MAKING A BETTER WORLD: PUBLIC HOUSING, THE RED SCARE, AND THE DIRECTION OF MODERN LOS ANGELES. By narrowing the focus to one major urban area's recent history, the changing sentiments of forces structuring and organizing urban growth and direction receive far more depth and detail than most, especially in its focus on low-cost housing politics.

5-0 out of 5 stars the newest classic in environmental psychology
Aragones, Francescato and Garling have organized an excellent volume with the main rotes investigated by modern research in the environmental psychology of residential settings. Since the classical oeuvre "The Handbook of Environmental Psychology" (1987) edited by Stokols and Altman (and the excellent work inside made by Tognoly about that huge topic) there were few other literary accomplishments like that one. As an architect I am specially interested in those researches linking "without fear of the inherent complexity" the physical and functional and psychological variables in residential environment planning - and some of the chapters (like the chapter 9, "Spatial-Physical Neighborhoods Affecting Social Interactions among Neighbors") are well written and founded, helpful, and "within call" to a major transcultural and trans-professional discussion. I personally recommend that book to my dearest colleagues, the ones wrestling in that difficult area of social work service in which the architect is so needed. ... Read more
