A high quality textbook which serves as an excellent core text. * Dr Ronagh McQuigg, Lecturer, Queen's University Belfast *
A truly excellent textbook; Virgo has the ability to explain difficult, complex issues in a manner which is engaging and accessible - and does not omit the finer, more nuanced points of discussion and debate. I would highly recommend this textbook for students. * Alec Morris, Teaching Fellow, Birmingham City University *
Professor Virgo's textbook is a remarkable achievement. It makes a difficult topic accessible and it does so while remaining sophisticated and authoritative. The structure of the book, its scope, and the level of detail are well judged, as is the integration of doctrine and theory. I will continue to recommend this textbook to my students without reservation. * Dr Luke Rostill, Associate Professor of Property Law, University of Oxford *
