Synopsis

Singer (Harvard Law School) aims to present property law clearly, for students, lawyers, and judges, and to explain the tensions, policies, and values that make up the property system. Using abundant references to cases and a reader-friendly design, he divides the material into chapters on the right to exclude and the right of access, relationships among neighbors, common ownership, real estate and fair housing, public land use planning (regulation and regulatory takings), tribal property, and personal intellectual property. By using "hard cases," Singer presents students with an opportunity to consider policy disagreements from both sides and understand the state of the law as it applies to clients looking to make informed decisions.
