"A vast amount of research has been conducted on the subject of single homelessness over the past decade. However, this material is often inaccessible to a wider audience - appearing in scholarly journals, or as local studies that are not generally available or advertised." "This guide is based on an in-depth review of single homelessness research in Britain throughout the 1990s and provides 200 high quality research summaries. Each summary comments on the robustness and usefulness of each study and highlights aims, methods, key findings and recommendations. The summaries are indexed by keywords covering all major areas of single homelessness research." "A review of single homelessness can be used independently or read alongside the two complementary reports - A bibliography of single homelessness research and the overview report, Single homelessness. These three reports are all vital reading for researchers, policy makers and practitioners in the field of single homelessness and anyone interested in issues related to homelessness generally."--BOOK JACKET.
