‘As an early convert to Making Sense of Land Law I saw an immediate improvement in the progression and comprehension of my students. The conversational style offers a real alternative to traditional land law textbooks, which the students welcomed. A valuable text that provides insight and learning on key matters in land law.’ – Kevin Greene, University of Sunderland 

‘Making Sense of Land Law offers students an accessible route into the subject. It breaks down complex areas of law, and leads students through clear examples and highlights key areas of discussion. The summary boxes are a useful tool which help to structure learning.’ – Kate McCarthy, University of Chester 

Taking a fresh and innovative approach to the subject, this is an essential textbook for those who need a solid grounding in the subject. While containing the necessary law, it also features practical scenarios and diagrams throughout, helping you to come to grips with the essentials of land law. The unique question-and-answer-style of the book takes you through the issues step by step and helps to explain the concepts in a real-life context. 

New to the fifth edition:

• Fully revised and updated
  
• The latest on the law of easements
  
• Discussion of the development in constructive and resulting trusts

This is an ideal text for students taking a land or property law module as part of an LLB degree. It will also be useful for undergraduates of related disciplines in which an awareness of land and property law is required in an easy-to-digest manner, such as planning, estate management, and business property and other built environment courses.
