Book Synopsis

Have you ever asked how other legal systems deal with a complex issue in land ownership? This work identifies the main models of land title law in the world today and compares them depth, point for point. It explores the emergence of modern legal systems from feudalism and achieved other reforms. It explains what the systems have in common and where they depart from each other. It cuts through the difficult terminology typically found in this field but does not over-simplify topics, inviting you to experience the intellectual context of how different modern legal systems regulate ownership of and transactions with land.
