Originally published in 1993, as part of the Ethnoscapes: Current Challenges in the Environmental Social Sciences series, reissued now with a new series introduction, Housing: Design, Research and Education, demonstrated some of the diversity and richness of the research being undertaken in housing at time, which took as its starting point peoples' notion of home and the way in which a sense of home is captured distilled and expressed through various facets of design, and conversely the urgent need for architects and planners to take seriously the everyday scale and scope of peoples' home experience.
A pesar de los avances de la neurociencia y de las ciencias cognitivas en los últimos cincuenta años, el estudio de la percepción abarca un campo en el que todavía no se dispone de una teoría unificada desde la cual se pueda dar cuenta de todos los fenómenos y procesos involucrados.
