而增加租赁住房供应，无疑将被列入新版。《住房法、权利和政策》是一部密集而雄心勃勃的著作，前一段是全面的声明，后一段是限定性的声明。报告通篇附有大量脚注，反映了所讨论的复杂、动态和往往相互矛盾的现实和进程。肯纳的描述、分析和辩论的混合体利用了令人眼花缭乱的阅读广度，并且不是没有其滑稽幽默的混合体：读者了解到土地委员会将大地产重新分配给农民小农的成就之一是将西班牙驴引入爱尔兰。可以提出两点批评。肯纳的书有一本法律的教科书的标准布局。这在有明确主题或时间顺序结构的章节中效果很好，但在没有这种结构的章节中效果就不太好了。例如，关于爱尔兰住房制度的观点的章节提供了不太有用的小标题来引导读者，并且过度依赖于引用的文本块。此外，未来的版本将需要更便宜，以确保更广泛的可访问性-虽然四个章节可在肯纳的爱尔兰国立大学高威（NUIG）的网站。住房法，权利和政策是最全面的处理爱尔兰住房可在一本书的封面。虽然主要吸引那些对法律感兴趣的人，但它值得在社会政策，政治，经济和社会历史的学生和从业者中找到更广泛的受众。
pancy and increasing rental housing supply, will no doubt be included in a new edition. Housing Law, Rights and Policy is a dense and ambitious work, with sweeping declarations in one paragraph hemmed in by qualifications in the next. Freighted throughout with copious footnotes, it reflects the complex, dynamic and often contradictory realities and processes being discussed. Kenna’s blend of description, analyis and polemic draws on a dazzling breadth of reading, and is not without its admixture of droll humour: the reader learns that one of the achievements of the Land Commission to redistribute large estates to peasant small-holders was the introduction of the Spanish jackass to Ireland. Two points of criticism may be made. Kenna’s volume has the standard layout of a legal textbook. This works well in chapters with clear thematic or chronological structures – but less well where such structures are absent. For example, the chapter on perspectives on the Irish housing system provides less than useful sub-headings to orient the reader, and over-relies on blocks of quoted text. Furthermore, a future edition would need to be less expensive to ensure wider accessibility – though four of the chapters are available on Kenna’s National University of Ireland Galway (NUIG) website. Housing Law, Rights and Policy is the most comprehensive treatment of Irish housing available within the covers of one book. While appealing primarily to those interested in law, it deserves to find a wider audience amongst students and practitioners of social policy, politics, economics and social history.
