Summary:

"This important two-volume collection assembles the seminal legal articles in property law and its subtopics published during the 20th and 21st centuries. The coverage is broad, as comprehensive as possible, ranging from theoretical to practical and doctrinal. The authors are primarily American and all stand as leading figures in their respective fields. Both volumes place their focus on topics of current interest, including economic and non-economic theories of property, the takings problem, and the reform of the law of land-use servitudes. Prefaced by an original introduction by the editor, this collection will be an invaluable tool for researchers and students of property law alike"-- Provided by publisher.
