Understanding Property Law provides a background to an area of law which is notoriously inaccessible. The authors clearly illustrate how the practices of the past have shaped the development and form of the modern law. In doing so they stress the role of lawyers in the transactions - such as sale, gift and inheritance - in which their clients become involved. This focus upon the work which lawyers do in their offices provides a necessary complement to the emphasis on legislation and adjudication found in most textbooks. This edition includes all recent legislative developments including the Land Registration Act 2002.
