This book is an outcome of the Ageing Populations: Policy Lessons from the East (APPLE) project, which was conceived at the University of Birmingham. It identifies aspects of the ways in which governments and societies of six Asian countries have responded to ageing of their societies.

The implications of population ageing have long concerned politicians, policy makers and governmental and non-governmental organizations in the welfare states of Europe

This text introduces the reader to the comparative study of housing policy. It looks first at the benefits, limitations and difficulties of the comparative method, as well as the reasons behind governmental involvement in housing and particular policy choices.

Could rising home ownership and equity rates ease problems of aging populations by funding the needs of older people? How much do governments rely on citizens to use their housing wealth now and in the future? This book discusses these questions and more.
