Environmental health and housing

Description

"With significant amounts of former council run housing returning to the private sector, and policy continuing to favour this sector in housing provision, the need for expertise in private sector environmental health enforcement is greater than ever." "Environmental Health and Housing will provide both students and professionals with comprehensive coverage of issues related to both social and private housing. The book includes basic technical information for completing house surveys, detailed yet clear backgrounds to and explanations of applying relevant legislation, and discussion of current policy and strategy. All this is backed up with case studies and examples of how theory and law are put into practice in real situations." "Unique in its coverage, clearly illustrated and covering such diverse topics as housing defects, caravan sites, asylum seekers and social exclusion, Environmental Health and Housing is an essential purchase for all students and professionals in the housing sector."--Jacket.
