Thoughts and feelings about home traditionally provided people of all cultures with a firm sense of where they belonged, and why. But with the world rapidly changing, many of our basic notions are becoming problematic. Both internationally and within countries, populations are constantly on the move, seeking better opportunities and living conditions, or an escape from violence and war. In spite of, or perhaps even because of these trends, ideas about home continue to shape the way people everywhere frame an understanding of their lives. In this Very Short Introduction Michael Allen Fox considers the complex meaning of home and the essential importance of place to human psychology. Drawing on a wide array of international examples he discusses what dwelling is and the variety of dwellings. Fox also looks at the politics of the concept of 'home', homelessness, refugeeism and migration, and the future of home, and argues that home remains a central organizing concept in human life.

Love it
Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I use nivea lotions. First time trying this. Wow! Light scent, super moisturizing. Not oily, soaks in really well. Good price, and quick shipping. Will purchase again.

high fragrance
Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This isn't my favorite Nivea product. If you're looking for the same consistency as the blue tub, this isn't it. The fragrance is a bit strong for me, but it does moisturize well and does not leave you feeling heavy or greasy. I will keep using it until it is gone but not repurchase.

This butter body cream is simply delicious, the texture in the skin feels soft, easy to absorb, the smell is really soft it doesn’t bother me at all. Good moisturizer for dry skin.

Great lotion!
Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
My skin stays dry. I wash my hands numerously throughout the day and the outside of my left index finger is almost always dry or the skin splits from dryness. My elbows sometimes are really dry too. I love this lotion and the smell of it. It performs miracles on my dry skin, it's so good. I definitely recommend to those who suffer from dry skin not only year round, but at any time. I will warn you though that the jar is huge, so it's a lot.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve tried many lotions & creams for my rough elbows & dry feet. Soon after I applied this cream I was surprised to see how soft my elbows & feet were. I use this cream on my arms, legs, feet & hands, it has improved the condition of my skin dramatically. AWESOME cream!
