Explores the potential for market forces to take over at least some of the regulation of building safety and quality that has been assumed by governments for the past two centuries. Draws on theoretical work in such areas as product safety and quality, public goods and choice, and Austrian knowledge theories. Also presents new evidence about building regulation and some obscure aspects of legal philosophy, and analyzes the cost of public decisions on a theoretical level. Distributed in the US by Ashgate. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
