"The fact that Property Development has now reached its Sixth Edition suggests two things. First, while the fundamentals of the development process remain essentially unchanged, the contexts in which it is carried out are changing all the time, and this is well reflected in this new edition. The second is that the book, in going through so many editions, has proved to be a continuously valuable textbook for students studying the subject internationally. It provides both the basic concepts and enough depth to be useful at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels of study." Professor Peter Byrne, Henley Business School, University of Reading, UK
