Covers theory of housing and land ownership with clarity initially, and I feel like I have a better grounding in conversations about housing inequality for having read this book! However, at times it reads like research notes, with a lot of detailed case studies, but lacking in clear conclusions and themes. I felt the writers were providing grounding and proof for an argument and worldview that I was supposed to already know, so I’m not sure I’d recommend this to a friend unless they were already very deeply engaged in real estate and housing access work.

I found it a bit dry, at times focusing too much on individual examples rather than on the theoretical framework. I feel like they touch too briefly on the theory, as interesting as it is.
