The great U.S. mortgage crisis was a transformative event that will reverberate for decades across families, neighborhoods, and cities. After years of research on various aspects of the crisis, Dan Immergluck examines what went wrong, identifying the factors that created the fragile housing finance system, which provided fertile ground for calamity. He also examines the federal response to the crisis, including who benefitted most from the response, and how a more effective and fair response could have been formulated. To reduce the incidence of future crises, Immergluck provides a pathway for building a more stable and fair housing finance system that would be less vulnerable to the booms and busts of global finance. Housing finance helps determine access to stable, decent-quality, affordable housing and also affects the geography of housing and educational opportunities. Thus, housing markets shape our communities, our neighborhoods, and our social and economic opportunities. Immergluck’s analysis and formulation of a way forward will be of particular interest to those concerned with urban form, neighborhood change and stability, and urban planning and policy, as well as those interested in housing and mortgage markets more generally.
"Turnaround" is a technique rich exposeacute; about improving the information technology service management structure of an information technology department. It provides easy to follow steps for improving the performance of any IT department, especially one that is in crisis. "Turnaround" also provides contextually relevant stories that paint real world pictures of IT leader challenges from which the reader can draw valuable lessons and consider solutions for the problems IT leaders often face. Many of the examples presented in "Turnaround" are health care industry oriented; however, having spent nearly half his career in global manufacturing and consumer goods, and the latter half in health care, the author has found that the fundamentals of information service management are essentially the same everywhere. The business vocabularies, business processes, products and services differ; but once you enter the halls of the IT department, you still find servers, operating systems, help desks, networks, telephony, and the necessary IT disciplines to manage them.
