The fifth edition of Martin Dixons Modern Land Law builds on the books strength as a user-friendly yet comprehensive account of the field. Maintaining its explanation of land law in an understandable and logical fashion,this thoroughly revised and updated book fully considers the impact of the reforms of the Land Registration Act 2002.

As the most significant piece of legislation since 1925, this statute will fundamentally change the way we approach land law. The text is designed to explode the myth that land law is a mystery by treating the subject like a jigsaw and explaining how the principles of the subject fit together within that jigsaw. Each chapter commences with a clear introduction to the general scheme of modern land law and then considers the major topics in turn, concluding with a summary.
