This fascinating, yet gritty, account of life in neighbourhoods suffering from long term decline will surely become one of the seminal studies concerned with urban regeneration and renewal. While there is reference to possible solutions in the opening and final chapters, these will have to be developed in other studies for which Kinder has provided a rigours and methodologically sound account of urban living without public services.
