This is a new edition of our well-established Property text in the renowned Clarendon Law Series. It is completely revised and updated to incorporate all recent legislative changes and provides a clear and critical account of the basic principles of the law of property. It provides both a succinct and thoughtful overview of the subject for those coming to it for the first time (e.g. as pre-course reading) and also pulls together themes and raises thought-provoking insights and synergies for those reading it after they have completed both property heads.
