Overview

Compulsory Purchase and Compensation is the essential guide to this complex and increasingly relevant area of the law. Now in its tenth edition, no other book presents the same level of information on the law relating to compulsory purchase and compensation in England and Wales in such an accessible way. The best-selling book on the subject, previous editions have been used by professionals and students alike in order to gain a full understanding of a key subject for any surveyor or lawyer. The book is also especially suited to those coming to this complex subject without a specific background in the law and ideal reading for those students taking planning and built environment law modules. Surveyors in particular will find this book invaluable. This new edition has been extensively revised, and reflects the Localism Act 2011 and other recent decisions of the courts and the Upper Tribunal, all of which will be of particular interest to those working on cases related to HS2, the proposed high-speed railway line from London to Birmingham, Leeds and Manchester.

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
