“It is a concise resource for politicians, policy makers and advocates interested in addressing affordability and access concerns, and an essential guide for students of Australian urban and housing policy studies. … This new book on Australian housing policy concisely brings a selection of Australia’s research effort and experience to a wider audience, but it does more than this too. It outlines an agenda for reform.” (Julie Lawson, Journal of Housing and the Built Environment, November 28, 2020)“Housing Policy in Australia has already become the standard text on the topic. The book is comprehensive, incisive, and lucid. It will be required reading for students, practitioners, and policy makers. … as essential as the book is for students of Australian housing policy, its international comparative perspective makes it an important resource for housing studies throughoutthe ‘developed’ world. Nearly every chapter situates Australia’s housing problems and housing policies within an international context, comparing Australia to other countries in Europe and North America.” (Alex Schwartz, Housing Studies, September 2, 2020)“This includes a near-comprehensive explanation of why housing is so unaffordable and what governments can do about it. … the text is easy to read with its clear writing style, a balance of views and strong Organisation of the material. … This book is essential reading for anyone who wants the necessary knowledge and guidance to change that unnecessary fact.” (Ryan Harris, Shelter NSW eBulletin, February 21, 2020)
