"Rethinking Rental Housing should be required reading for everyone involved in housing policy. It s easily the most significant piece on housing policy written in the last 30 years.... Gilderbloom and Appelbaum strip away the faulty and fictional basis for a national housing policy and offer in its stead a sound, comprehensive, and rational program to guide American housing policy into the 21st century. They offer the first truly effective approach to solving the growing problem of housing affordability."
Daniel Lauber, immediate past President, American Planning Association

"... An exhaustive and penetrating study of rental housing in the United States. They go beyond the usual preoccupation with market factors to demonstrate the social and political processes which determine the availability of rental housing.... Anyone who wants to understand the growing crisis in rental housing in America will want to read this book."
Frances Fox Piven and Richard A. Cloward

"This book is a compelling debunking of many of the myths which surround the debate over housing subsidies and policy...."
Barry Zigas, President, National Low Income Housing Coalition

"An impressive and important work. This book is a landmark in the discussion of rental housing in the U.S. It should be consulted by policymakers, read by housing activists, and assigned by professors."
