Principles of Land Law

This fully updated, revised and expanded edition makes land law readily accessible. It provides an analysis that is both up to date and original. It commences with a valuable introduction to the general scheme of modern land law and then considers the major topics in turn. Land law has changed much in recent years: the advent of significant legislation in the law of leases and in the field of co-ownership has radically altered the legal landscape. Case law, too, has boomed. In September 1998, the Law Commission published its blueprint for land registration in the next century. These developments, as well as the recognition of the importance of land law within the degree syllabus, have resulted in this new and comprehensive edition. The book retains its central purpose that of providing a readable, comprehensible and comprehensive exposition of the principles of land law.
