Synopsis:

"A Decent Place to Live is a fabulous piece of work. Well-written, candid and engaging, its honesty is refreshing; nothing is swept under the rug. The voices of the tenants carry the story forward, but the transformation of Columbia Point is set in a political context and the impact of government policies is explored. A valuable resource for urban planners, architects, housing policy makers, and developers." -- Hubert E. Jones, Assistant Chancellor for Urban Affairs, University of Massachusetts, Boston

About the Author: Jane Roessner, who holds a Ph.D. in English literature, is a Boston-area writer and film producer with a strong interest in health care and women's issues. She lives in Newton, Massachusetts.
