We talk with New Hampshire author Howard Mansfield about his new book, "The Habit of Turning the World Upside Down: Our Belief in Property and the Cost of That Belief." Mansfield was struck by the emotional nature of battles over natural gas pipelines and transmission lines. He focuses on the essential American experience of property and questions over "who decides the best use?" and "who owns property?"
