Raphael W. Bostic is a professor in the School of Policy, Planning, and Development at the University of Southern California.
“Around the world, large landowners are significant players in
economic development and land markets. Yet, remarkably little is
known about their objectives when developing or selling their land,
or the strategies they deploy when engaging with the community,
planners, and land use regulators. Into this near vacuum study
comes this excellent collection that sheds important light on the
behavior or landowners in the United States and abroad."

Studies of Harvard University*
“This book offers the first in-depth look at planning and
development issues related to large landowners within and at the
edge of urban areas. The research represented in the book is
complex and provocative. This is an important read for scholars
interested in the effects of the large landowner, whether private,
public, or nonprofit, on neighborhoods and on broader urban
development patterns.”
