Rory Coulter, University of Cambridge, Journal of Urban Affairs 'This well-organized book provides the reader with a feel for the uniqueness of each city and its segregation problem. I especially appreciated the fact that the contributors combined statistical measures of segregation and mapped location coefficients with information on the city's history, as well as its welfare and housing policies.'
