the home: words, interpretations, meanings and environments

First published in 1995, this title by by leading theorists and empirical researchers offers an interdisciplinary and multi-cultural spectrum of viewpoints on the study of the home concept. It focuses on refining our concepts of home, our knowledge of the uses of home, and the relationship of home to the study of cultural interpretation.

David N. Benjamin received his PhD in Architecture from the Norwegian Institute of Technology in Trondheim, Norway with a study on the ancient Scandinavian home, and at the time of original publication was consultant to architects and research organizations in the US and Europe.
