Land Law - Softcover

Land Law is commonly held to be one of the hardest modules for students, mainly because the material is often taught in different manners; in lectures, the material was taught from the middle of the curriculum, whilst seminars were structured differently, resulting in at least a generation of confused students. This book might just be the answer to all the late night library sessions or meltdowns, when no one actually understands the assignment itself, let alone the material.Voila, Louise Glover & Kate Campbell-Pilling saved you. This book contains, within three hundred and nineteen pages, a solid basis of Land Law and a clear understanding of the course material. Its division in fourteen chapters makes it easy to navigate, and the material becomes build-able; by that I mean that it is extremely easy to follow on from the previous chapter and connect it with the following one(s). This helps you to acquire a good understanding, directly proportionate with the progression of the book.To sum up, this might be just be one of the most comprehensive books out there that does not also need an additional revision guide to help you. Therefore, it is one that I recommend wholeheartedly. The very comprehensive and structured approached taken by these authors, finally sheds some light on the sometimes dreaded module that is Land Law. --The Student Lawyer

the book looks good and it is engaging and well-written. I think it deals with equity and the equitable interests really well, which is where a lot of books & students struggle a bit, so that is promising. The authors should be very pleased. --Richard Hedlund, Lincoln University

A really good Land Law book - it's well structured, well thought out and is accessible enough for the student for whom property subjects will always be part of the dark arts while opening up the beauty of Land Law to students who enjoy revelling in its peculiar logic. I wish I'd had this book back in 1972! --Greg Osborne, Portsmouth University
