The second edition of Scottish Land Law is a thoroughly updated and comprehensive account of Scots law relating to rights in and over land. Gordon has quickly established its status as a definitive work which no legal practice can afford to be without. This new edition has been carefully revised and updated to take account of new case law such as Sharp v Thomas and legislation from the Age of Legal Capacity (Scotland) Act 1991 to the Requirements of Writing (Scotland) Act 1997 and the Petroleum Act 1998, plus the burgeoning environmental legislation. Although Scottish Land Law states the law at the time of publication, it also looks forward to the abolition of the feudal system and refers to the relevant discussion papers and reports of the Scottish Law Commission.
