"The book gives excellently documented insights into a current intractable problem in the US, that of affordability of housing in growing regions...Anyone who is looking for a good analysis of current urbanisation in the US with special reference to the issue of the supply of affordable housing, however, must read Anthony Down's book." --Hugo Priemus, Faculty of Technology, Policy and Management, Delft University of Technology, Urban Studies "This book provides one of the most comprehensive attempts to address this issue that has been suprisingly overlooked." --Richard M Haughey, Journal of the American Planning Association
