'Here is a book whose breadth of purpose and depth of learning are
breathtaking.' Peter Butt, [2005] 69 Conv 363
Gray & Gray's Elements of Land Law is the definitive textbook
on the subject. The book offers comprehensive coverage of the law
in this area. The authors provide an insightful and
thought-provoking commentary on the modern development of the
subject and go on to explore how land law functions in today's
society. The book includes an analysis of recent legislation and
case law in England and Wales. There are also references to
significant cases from Australia, New Zealand, the United States
and Canada, coupled with a detailed account of reforms currently
proposed by the English Law Commission. The book demonstrates a
thorough understanding of the social and political context of land
law and guides the reader through the sometimes difficult
terminology of the subject.
This fifth edition continues to balance up-to-date coverage of the
key issues in land law with a critical survey of cutting-edge
research. Building on the strengths of previous editions, the book
ensures that excellent scholarship is accessible to an even wider
readership: more chapters of shorter length offer the possibility
of readers 'dipping' into topics in a non-linear way. A fresh, new
format and text design support the re-structuring of content and
aid navigability. Readers wanting to explore areas of interest in
more depth are encouraged to do so by the exemplary footnoting and
referencing.
The book is accompanied by an online resource centre providing
updates and web links between editions. This facility also contains
illustrative material such as photographs relating to relevant
casesdiscussed in the book. A podcast of the authors introducing
the subject will excite students new to the subject area.
