Customer Reviews

As exciting as a property book can get

This being my second book on property law (the first being Fundamentals of Modern Property Law), I have to say that it is decent look into the structure of the legal systems property laws. Property provides decent cases to allow for an understanding of the basic concepts and relies on the Restatement Third to show where the law is headed. Outside of that that, it also deals with a commentary like writing to also provide some common law historical footprints to give some evolution or incite to why courts rule the way they do. When it is all said and done though, you have to realize that this is from a students perspective, so the book is ok compared to what I had before. There are issues though where you have cases that only provide a minorities perspective and have to rely on the instructor or knowledge to what the majorities perspective is (or statute). It is much clearer than the other book I have used and as a bonus to students, it provides diagrams and pictures on some more complicated cases to help create a visualization (plus who doesn't like pictures)

Great deal on 'Property'

I got a book in great condition for 1/4 the price at my school's bookstore! I would definitely buy from this seller again.

Book in Great Condition

Book was listed as acceptable, but it was actually in very great condition. Very little highlighting, etc. Thanks.

Quick delivery

This was the book I needed, the most recent edition, still in the shrinkwrap from the publisher. It was delivered quickly.

An Oasis in the Casebook Desert

Easily the best casebook I have had yet. The cases are interesting and easy to follow. The authors have made a shocking break with casebook tradition and have included notes which clarify and enlighten, rather than bewilder and confuse. Occasional pictures relating to cases are also included. Always a joyful surprise when faced with the evening's herculean reading assignment to get a whole page gratis! Admittedly, the professor doesn't come with the book, but this book definitely takes you half the way towards loving property.
