The book retains the structure adopted in the ninth edition and incorporates various innovations, including an increased focus on the transactional context within which the substantive law operates. Chapter 1 deals with conceptual issues that underpin and define the ambit of property law. Later chapters examine four broad issues with which the law of property is concerned: the fragmentation of proprietary interests (Ch 2, 3 & 6); the acquisition and transfer of proprietary interests (Ch 4); and the enforceability of proprietary interests and related priority issues (Ch 4 & 5). The book also examines the rules regulating the creation and enforcement of particular interests in land, including leases, easements, restrictive covenants and mortgages.Important recent appellate court cases and statutes covered include:· Cassegrain· Akiba· Brown· Congoo· Sidhu· Jea Holdings· SogutluStudent learning support for this book is available on Campus.

The past two decades have seen a concerted attempt by landowner groups to shift the paradigm of property rights from a 'discrete asset' to a 'bundle of rights', and to characterise many restrictions on use rights as a taking of property. Evidence from two recent Commonwealth inquiries into land clearing laws indicates that the reframing of property rights may be affecting the willingness of landowners to tolerate regulatory restrictions on their land use. The arguments advanced by the property rights groups draw on contested concepts from American jurisprudence and scholarship on the 'Takings Clause' in the Fifth Amendment to the US Constitution. The arguments are beginning to present themselves in cases arising under section 51(xxxi) of the Australian Constitution.
