As its title suggests, the book is also about land use. This is put forward as being at the fulcrum of attempts to find sustainable solutions. 3 By ready analogy for a lawyer, a special emphasis is laid upon relationships, although these are conceived as wider in scope than is generally the case: such as between the achievement of economic growth and sustainability; as likewise between environmental degradation and regulatory policy.
