Reviews
'There is something in this compact volume for the widest range of those interested in land use, from planning and law students, to lawyers, to public officials, to environmental advocates. I've been in the field for more than a half century and I learned plenty from it.', 'Professor Miller's new book is an important contribution to public understanding of how land use law works. It not only covers the basics but also integrates related topics (like environmental justice, the fiscalization of land use, and restrictive covenants) in text that is both readable and nuanced.'
