Overview
"... I consider that Professor Bryant has produced
an extremely valuable study of problems of development related to the use and ownership of land within the laws, customs and usages of western society. This is very pertinent at the present time in its discussion of the achievements of planned development by both private and public agencies against a background of ownership and interests in land. To my knowledge there is no other comparable work covering this field. The solution to the urgent problems arising from rapid urbanization is being frustrated by the rapid increase in development land values which is a cause of concern both to public and private agencies." Malcolm Reece, Deputy County Planning Officer, County of East Sussex, England
"The theme is extremely timely at this particular juncture ...because this is a time when governments are starting to take some initiative in shaping our environments... The acquisition of land on an unprecedented scale... inevitably faces public authorities with a classical dilemma — the very actions they contemplate raise land prices and erect barriers to the fulfillment of the programmes." L. O. Gertler, Director-General, Research, Ministry of State for Urban Affairs, Ottawa
