Building on Paul Goldstein's earlier, highly successful casebook on Real Property Law, this casebook is designed for the faculty member who wants to cover not only traditional property issues but also emerging environmental issues in the management of land and other resources. Property lawyers are increasingly engaged in environmental issues -- whether it be the increased interest in conservation easements, national regulation of land use through such statutes as the Endangered Species Act and the Clean Water Act, problems of hazardous waste cleanup, pressures to open private land to public use through the public trust doctrine and other legal mechanisms, or dozens of other environmental additions to traditional property law. This new casebook is the first to provide significant materials on emerging and important environmental issues in the property field. It provides an in-depth treatment of traditional property doctrines, while providing cutting-edge coverage of these emerging envir

Environmental Law and Policy is a user-friendly, concise, inexpensive treatment of environmental law. Written to be read rather than used as a reference source, the authors provide a broad conceptual overview of environmental law while also explaining the major statutes and cases. The book is intended for four audiences - students (both graduate and undergraduate) seeking a readable study guide for their environmental law and policy courses; professors who do not use casebooks (relying on their own materials or case studies) but want an integrating text for their courses or want to include conceptual materials on the major legal issues; and practicing lawyers and environmental professionals who want a concise, readable overview of the field. For the Third Edition, new chapters have been written on climate change and energy, exploring the important developments in these rapidly changing areas.The first part of the book provides an engaging discussion of the major themes and issues t

Environmental & Natural Resources Law

This casebook is designed for the property professor who wants to cover not only all the traditional property issues but also emerging environmental issues in the management of land and other resources. The casebook provides in-depth coverage of real property law, including the rights of property owners, real estate transactions and finance, estates in land, land-use regulation, and takings law. But the casebook also covers related environmental issues, reflecting the reality that issues such as wetland protection, conservation easements, and water scarcity are today as important, if not in some cases more important, to many property lawyers as more traditional concerns such as the rule against perpetuities, subjacent land support, and deed construction. Looking at property law through an environmental lens also provides new insights and new ways of conceptualizing property doctrines. The result is a readable, interesting, and cutting-edge treatment of modern property law. This new edition has been thoroughly updated. This edition provides brand new coverage of emerging issues, such as judicial takings, takings legislation, the subprime mortgage crisis, same-sex relationships, fracking, legal protection of ecosystem services, and public access to beaches (one of the hottest topics today in the collision of private and public interests in land).

Natural Resources Law and Policy is a user-friendly, concise, inexpensive text on how we manage our valuable resources. Written to be an enjoyable and informative guide to natural resources, rather than used as a dry reference source, the authors provide a broad conceptual overview of natural resource management while also explaining the major statutes, cases, and doctrines. The book is intended for three audiences - students (both graduate and undergraduate) seeking a readable study guide for their natural-resource and environmental courses; professors who do not use casebooks (relying on their own materials or case studies) but want an integrating text or want to include conceptual materials on the major legal issues; and practicing lawyers and professionals who want a readable overview of the field. The first part of the book explains the major themes and issues that cross-cut natural resources law as well as the relevant legal doctrines from administrative law, constitutional law, and standing. The second part of the book explores the management of specific natural resources – from fisheries, forests and frogs to national parks, oil and water, and others. A series of problem exercises run throughout the book, describing a legal or policy conflict in detail and asking students to identify and assess solutions. Textual boxes out set out the details of important judicial opinions.

This comprehensive casebook, now in a fully updated sixth edition, spans eastern and western water law and policy issues, focusing on the allocation, use and conservation of groundwater and surface water. The new edition retains its in-depth consideration of water institutions, expands its discussion of federal-state and interstate water relations, and sharpens its coverage of property rights claims and the public trust doctrine.
