Itisa book strongly to be recommended to all

The Housing Problem is not solved solely by the provision of houses. Many other questions are intimately related to it, the most important of which is the location of industry and the movement of population. This book examines the present tendency of industry to move to the outskirts of big cities and analyses the resultant economic wastage. The positive theory expounded is the fullest possible decen-

tralization of industry into satellite towns, developed on the principle exhibited by Letchworth and Welwyn Garden Cities.
