By Gordon Logie

Offering a wealth of English terms with their equivalents in French, Italian, Dutch, German, and Swedish, the glossary deals with those aspects of demography - the science of population - which are the basis of physical planning, such as the size and growth of populations, population statistics and migration. The section on housing covers the different aspects of housing policy, the problems of slum clearance and the improvement of residential areas, the ownership and building of different types of housing, housing land, residential areas, housing sites and housing schemes, different types of dwelling and room, different methods of calculating housing density, and physical living conditions inside dwellings.
