"This book offers intriguing stories and useful analysis about housing generally and housing for particular groups whose needs are often not well served by the market. It also addresses more fundamental questions regarding the culture, values, and politics of American society in general. The message that currently unconventional forms of housing can and do meet real needs, and that many forces restrict such housing development, is important." — Gregory D. Squires, University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee"This is a needed addition to the literature. Under One Roof covers an important issue that has gotten only cursory attention." — Roger W. Caves, San Diego State University
