Recenzje

'Systems of property law differ, but as this book shows they differ not so much as one would think. This book offers a very impressive comparative overview of property law across the globe by coding legal systems. In doing so Chang offers deep insights into the general structure of property law and categories of approaches to problems.' Bram Akkermans, Professor of Property Law, Maastricht University
