Not in my backyard -- that's the refrain commonly invoked by property owners who oppose unwanted development. Such words assume a special ferocity when the development in question is public housing. Lisa Belkin penetrates the prejudices, myths, and heated emotions stirred by the most recent trend in public housing as she re-creates a landmark case in riveting detail, showing how a proposal to build scattered-site public housing in middle-class neighborhoods nearly destroyed an entire city and forever changed the lives of many of its citizens.-- Public housing projects are being torn down throughout the United States. What will take their place? Show Me a Hero explores the answer.
-- An important and compelling work of narrative nonfiction in the tradition of J. Anthony Lukas's Common Ground.
-- A sweeping yet intimate group portrait that assesses the effects of public policy on individual human lives.

buy these! sized to have just enough beverage but not too much.
i like instant coffee so i filled the cup with tap water and microwaved it for 1 minute and added 1 scoop of coffee. after i finished it i had another so i actually had hotter coffee than i normally do - usually my coffee is cold by the time i get half way through my usual giant mug. microwaved well. did not leak or fall apart. i can see that they would be great for an event because they are really small so people could have a little something to drink but if they didn't finish it not much would be wasted. i have many giant mugs so they are really small compared to those. really good purchase. ****these do not have any kind of scent or flavor. it seems like that would be a requirement but you never know so i thought i'd mention it.
