The Principles of Land Law Reviews

The book is groundbreaking and I believe fills an essential gap in the market in relation to land law books [...] it is likely to be listed on many reading lists as 'essential reading'. * Dr Gayatri Patel, Aston University *
I think this text finds a spot-on balance between clear and succinct definitions, and moments of deeper analyses. * Dr Alice Diver, Liverpool John Moores University *
It is well written and difficult concepts, rules, and decisions are clearly articulated without loss of complexity. The author's enthusiasm for the subject is evident throughout. * Dr David Seymour, City Law School *
