In its essence, land law has to provide answers to two very difficult questions: who is entitled to use land, and how they are entitled to use it? Land law is therefore inherently difficult, but not impossibly so. It consists of an ordered and logical system, which aims to take the sting out of fierce disputes. This new introductory textbook reveals the system and also shows how it is possible to understand and criticize land law. The book is written in a student-friendly style and, in both its pages and companion web-site, makes use of helpful visual aids. The book places land law firmly within the wider context of property law. The introduction discusses a basic tension which runs throughout property law, and it shows how that tension is heightened where land is involved. The second part shows the response to this basic tension, setting out a basic structure which applies throughout property law, while noting how the special nature of land leads to the special features of land law. The third part of the book applies the basic structure to the individual topics making up land law courses, using the structure to reveal the conceptual coherence which lies behind the technical terms. The book is ideal reading for undergraduate law students seeking a rock-solid understanding of how land law works.

Designed to help the reader gain a deeper understanding of property law by explaining (in plain language) the analytical framework of the subject.

This textbook is an innovative departure from a traditional casebook that uniquely harmonizes best practices for student learning with a lawyering practice orientation. Addressing all the major topics of property law, the text continually places students in the role of practitioners who apply their learning by evaluating real world practice based problems and documents and engage in professional identity development. Additionally, the book makes student learning easier and more effective by implementing proven instructional strategies, including explicit organization with clear explanations of law, only then diving into cases and statutes with framing questions up front, multiple methods of instruction, graphic organizers and illustrations, active learning exercises, and plentiful opportunities for practice, recursion and synthesis.
