Reviews

[T]his book provides a wide spectrum of real estate development approaches in a range of markets, which can be viewed through an institutional lens to understand the linkages in environments, markets, agencies, processes and outcomes . It is an important reference source for students and researchers, and paves the way for stimulating further comparative research, particularly between the global south and global north. - Piyush Tiwari, Construction Economics and Building, University of Melbourne, Australia
