This book sets out the key elements of how to develop property sustainably, from the pragmatic perspective that sustainability is a contested and relative concept. Drawing on international case studies, the book offers an excellent insight into how sustainability can be embedded in the lifecycle of property development from feasibility through appraisal and construction, financing, procurement and subsequent, in use operations. Written in accessible and punchy style, the book also offers a critical insight into the plethora of rating and assessment tools for buildings. The authors are well-recognised experts in their field and this book will appeal to a wide range of readers from students through to practitioners. Professor Tim Dixon, Chair in Sustainable Futures in the Built Environment, University of Reading
