Abstract

This book is a welcome addition to the still small collection of research and commentary on Scottish housing policy. Duncan Sim has included many of the 'notables* of Scottish housing studies (plus Steve Wilcox and Alan Murie who work in England) and has produced 14 substantive chapters that reflect on important and different dimensions of Scottish housing post-devolution. In recent years, the Chartered Institute of Housing has moved strongly into housing policy publications and this includes national textbooks, of which this is the second one on Scotland (the first, edited by Currie and Murie, was published in 1996). These books straddle a number of markets: housing students, housing professionals and commentators and analysts. As an independent source of material in a highly politicised policy area, this direction is to be welcomed.
