Contributors at the symposium and to this book have considered Lawton's own contributions on: purpose-built housing design; the meanings of community; long-term care settings; quality of life and place theory; advancements in home modification; the micro-environment and personal surroundings, technology and product development; and the development of the Housing-related Control Beliefs questionnaire. This book has been co-published simultaneously as Journal of Housing for the Elderly, volume 17, numbers 1/2, 2003. (RH). |
