Books by Janet Ford

The emergence of high levels of unsustainable home ownership has many consequences for social and public policy. Using a wide range of methodological strategies, including in-depth qualitative interviews, this book paints a rich empirical picture of the causes, socio-economic distribution and social consequences of mortgage arrears and possessions.

In The Indebted Society Janet Ford gives an overview both of contemporary debt and credit and discusses the borrower's experience of debt, as well as its management.
