AlbakiReads Editorial
Housing across six millennia
Norbert Schoenauer’s survey traces housing from pre-urban dwellings among nomadic, semi-nomadic, and sedentary societies through to the present. Its global scope makes the history of homes the organizing thread, while the book also looks to historical precedents when discussing possible responses to modern housing problems. The revised third edition brings together a broad historical account and an applied question: what earlier forms of housing can contribute to thinking about present-day needs?
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Readers interested in architectural and housing history across different societies and periods.
- Students or general readers seeking a broad historical survey of dwellings and housing forms.
- Those exploring how historical precedents relate to modern housing challenges.
