Toward a Free Housing Market

About the Book

"Dr. Baum's report should provide helpful insights both for designers of national policy and for those who wish to bring about change at the community level," Rev. Theodore M Hedburgh, Chairman, The U.S. Commmission on Civil Rights, President, Notre Dame University.

"Dr. Baum's accounting of a successful method of achieving that most elusive goal-a free choice housing market-is overwhelming in its simplicity, you want to ask yourself, 'Why didn't we do this long ago?' We didn't, and we haven't, but Professor Baum shows us that we can." C. Les Creum, Jr., Director, Indiana Civil Rights Commission.
