Description

This text seeks to provide an interesting, reasoned and critical analysis of the major principles and doctrinal themes of the modern law of real property. Relating land law constantly to its first principles, the book proceeds to explore the subject against the background of its contemporary social, environmental and human rights dimensions. This edition takes account of relevant legislation, provides commentary on case law developments, and places English law firmly in the context of both European law and the comparative common law tradition.
