A disappointment. An unfocused collage of New York housing rights movements and the negative psychological effects of homelessness marketed as the definitive manifesto of the universal housing guarantee. What it does go into it doesn't do so enough, giving only a cursory overview. The good stuff, the prescription, the way forward, is crammed at the end. If someone could please recommend me a book on public housing with vision I'm all ears.
