This book is the first systematic attempt to introduce the current practice and statistics of town planning in Hong Kong. Part I gives an analytical account of the practical and ideological context, discusses design principles and describes procedures of town planning with particular reference to change in use. The emphasis is on skills of plan interpretation and an appreciation of the intellectual disposition of planners and various objective constraints confronting them. Part II is the first of its kind in presenting and analysing the statistics of planning applications for 11 zones from 1978 to 1998. The success rates of planning applications as well as the main reasons used by the Town Planning Board for rejecting planning applications are elucidated.

Successful practice sales are far more unlikely if the sale strategy and planning is left for the year (or two) immediately preceding the desired sale date. Multiple approaches to practice sales are possible. Some of the most effective approaches must be planned, and initiated, 3 - 5 years in advance. Each optional approach is different. The available options are not equal in terms of their likelihood to meet a specific location, not all approaches will work, and some may be far more effective than others. Dr. Stollings explores the optional approaches, explains each, and guides the reader in selecting the approach that best matches his / her specific practice, location, circumstances, and objectives.
