Transactions in International Land Management, Volume 1

About this book

This volume, and indeed the series it is part of, seeks to encourage the study of the complex international and multidisciplinary issues involved with land management. There are contributions from practical experts, consultants, and those involved in the teaching of the discipline. This title owes its evolution to a conference on the subject in January 1997, organized by Richard Bullard in conjunction with the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors. The papers have been edited and refereed.
