Bridging housing studies and social policy, this book analyses competing interpretations of the role and value of social housing in the UK. The author provides new research on the relationship between housing and wellbeing, and challenges the pervasive policy and social consensus that owner-occupation is the 'natural' choice of aspiring people.
