Housing, Sustainable Development and the Rural Poor A Study of Tamil Nadu

"This book should be required reading for Ph.D. students in the social sciences. The village schedule questionnaire and household schedule questionnaire have been thoughtfully reproduced in the appendices that follow the text. All those interested in rural housing, appropriate technology and sustainable development will be richly rewarded by a careful reading of this book." --The Hindu "A commendable study that breaks fresh ground. The book can be read at two levels; as a manual providing guidelines in the use of appropriate technology for constructing low cost houses and as a scientific treatise grounded in empirical data which explores systematically the application of ecodevelopment concepts to habitat problems. At either level, the reader will derive considerable knowledge and benefit."Glaeser, Bernhard is the author of 'Housing, Sustainable Development and the Rural Poor A Study of Tamil Nadu' with ISBN 9780803992566 and ISBN 0803992564.
