The role of property in fostering good governance, robust economies, and strong civil societies has received fresh attention in the wake of the collapse of communism, the adoption of a market driven approach to the economy, and the increasing impact of information technology. Some of these reforms have focused on a diverse package of measures dealing with land tenure security, land and property transactions, and access to credit. They have also been concerned with supporting physical planning, the sustainable management and control of land use and of natural resources, and facilitating real property taxation. As well, there has been a growing awareness of the requirement to address such issues as the protection of the environment and the provision of land for all people whatever their gender, but especially for the poor and ethnic minorities. Land Administration provides a high level overview of recent advances in building formal property systems throughout the world and reviews the role of property in advancing a society's economic and social agenda. It undertakes an in-depth examination of the land administration infrastructure required to support these modern property systems, giving particular attention to the survey, registration, valuation, and land use control functions. The text also provides an extended discussion of the information management challenges associate with the land administration field.

After an exhausting book tour, Ethan Warner wants nothing more than to spend the summer soaking up sun and reading bestsellers. He's rented the perfect place to do it-Sandy Heights, a two-acre estate on the North Fork of Long Island, eighty miles from his Manhattan penthouse. Desperately in need of a break from frenzied female fans, he's sworn off women. That is, until he meets a tantalizing woman at a nearby golf course, with a cute-as-punch body. Her playful razzing about his ineptness at the game leaves him begging for more. Tara Brooks realizes too late, after flirting outrageously with Ethan, that he's her tenant for the season. Pure country herself, she's taken by his bizarre humor and cosmic view on life, but he's just passing through. And she knows that's the worst kind of man to fall in love with. Dale Ketcham lives on Long Island, New York, with her husband Arne. Dale splits her time between writing and raising guide dogs for the local Guide Dog Foundation.
D'Iberville and the community of St. Martin share more than a common origin: from their colonial beginnings they have been one, now separated only by an invisible county line. The first is named after Pierre LeMoyne, Sieur d'Iberville, commander of the French fleet who initiated settlement of Louis XIV's claim to the Mississippi Valley and adjacent coast of the Mexican Gulf in 1699. The latter is named for Raymond St. Martin de Pattier (or Jorquiboey), who married into the pioneer Ladnier family that homesteaded the north side of Biloxi Bay in the late 1700s and were the first landowners when the colonial era ended and the American flag was hoisted in 1811. After statehood in 1817, foreign and American emigrants arrived by ship and covered wagon. Before the Civil War, the families north of the bay included Spanish, Austrian, Italian, and their "African chattel." From this frontier beginning, farmers and fishermen spawned ranching, timber, and seafood industries as well as shipbuilding and mercantile enterprises. By World War II, it was a town, and in 1988 it became a city within the core of this old frontier.
