supply of land for development. The standard view appears to be
that the owners of land have no interest other than to allow their
land to be used for the activity which would yield the highest
income. But in reality this is not so and the book's aim is to
demonstrate this, to set out the reasons and to show the economic
effects of the fact that landowners have other motives.
The book covers the supply of land for urban development and
shows how land has characteristics which differentiate it from
other factors of production which will also affect its supply for
some uses, e.g. land is fixed in location and its price and value
are inseparable from where it is.
New light is cast on the market for land (by concentrating on
the supply side), and on land use planning (by taking an economic
viewpoint).

Excellent in the way it brings together in a coherent whole,
various approaches to the analysis of the supply of land for
development. The issues covered are pertinent for both
practitioners and academics in providing a useful theoretical
framework based on sound economics. The book is well written and
enjoyable to read.
