Reviews

"Compulsory Purchase and Compensation remains a fantastic introductory text to this complex area of law. It clearly explains the key issues and principles allowing the reader to quickly understand the law. It has been thoroughly updated since the last edition to include the case-law and legislative developments (including Thomas Newall and Bishopsgate (amongst others) and the changes to the scheme for certificates of appropriate alternative development)." - Student Law Journal
