Scandalous Conduct: Canadian Officer Courts Martial, 1914-45

important contribution of this work because it reveals that the lack of attention to care in social policy is important not just for older populations, but for others as well. Like older people, disabled people face many barriers when seeking safe, adequate, and affordable housing as well, and disabled people are over-represented among the homeless population. Especially for people with severe disabilities, preventing homelessness or ending homelessness requires not just income and housing, but also care. An understanding of the importance of care draws attention to the tremendous insufficiency of current approaches to care, not just for older people but for other populations as well, and of the desperate need to break down silos among sectors. While maintaining an emphasis on the imperative of meeting the unmet needs of older people with experiences of homelessness, it would have been interesting to conclude the book by zooming back out to consider how this detailed and thoughtful study of late-life homelessness can inform responses to homelessness more broadly.
