An excellent empirical analysis of the gentrification process,
clearly the culmination of a sustained and thoughtful research
study. Although this is a book principally about Canadian cities,
there are a number of valuable insights which are applicable to the
US and British localities. - Keith Jacobs - Housing Studies

`Faculty are often asked, by students and funding agencies, for
examples of how scholarly research in a given discipline or field
should be done. This volume provides an excellent model. The book
is very well written, carefully argued, richly informative and
copiously documented... not only solid scholarship, but a good
read. Students of inner cities will find this volume especially
useful... It may also serve as the definitive history to date of
the
gentrification literature... this volume will likely stand as...
the definitive history of, three decades of research on
gentrification.'
Larry S. Bourne, Progress in Human Geography
