This casebook continues its traditional approach to the teaching of property law. The opening chapter continues to include a section of cases designed to hone a student's skill in close case analysis. The materials in the first seven chapters have been reorganized and the notes updated as appropriate. New cases have been added regarding rights of possessors, organs as property, and class gifts. Chapters 8-9 on servitudes and nuisance are updated, with expanded coverage of the Restatement (Third). Chapters 10 and 11 (takings and zoning) have been significantly revised. In particular, the takings chapter includes the Supreme Court's Kelo and Lingle decisions, including a detailed discussion of the angry aftermath to Kelo in both Congress and state legislatures, as well as of state courts that have interpreted state constitutions to give greater protection than Kelo does under the federal Constitution. The last three chapters, which are devoted to real estate transfer issues, remain largely intact with updating and the addition of one new principal case relating to rescission of a land sales contract.

4.0 out of 5 stars my life for a year
Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2006
This book was my companion every day for two semesters of property law. I've read it cover to cover and picked the darn thing apart in studying for final exams. It's not a bad casebook but could be better. You'll definitely want to get a supplement for the dreaded future interests section of the book which is rather sparse and fails I think in explaining the topic thoroughly. Is a tad bit out of date too as it does not contain the Kelo v. City of New London decision which is enormously important.
