This sensitive and insightful ethnographic study demonstrates that our research, and our cities, are better for remembering those who are too frequently ignored.'Steve Herbert, University of Washington, USA'Gentrification comes in many flavours, and Tone Huse's sensitive and vivid biography of a street in eastern Oslo captures a broad range of current and recent processes of change in the urban landscape, from the impact of global neoliberalism to the new ethnic diversity. Written with verve and gusto, this book offers an unusual, attractive and compelling perspective on urban transformations in Western Europe.'Thomas Hylland Eriksen, University of Oslo, Norway Author InformationTone Huse is Research Fellow in the the Department of Sociology, Political Science and Community Planning at the University of Tromso, Norway.
