This new work a successor to the authors earlier book (co-written with Geoff Gilbert) Landlord & Tenant Law: The Nature of Tenancies (1995) though now the work of a single author & completely up-dated & rewritten shares the same aim of setting leases in their wider context by weaving together matters of law & policy. The book provides a clear understanding of the main principles of landlord & tenant law in each sector. The style of this book is distinctive. First of all it explains the law of landlord & tenant law by showing how the statutory & common law rules have been shaped by wider commercial social economic & policy considerations by the growth in human rights law & by changing concepts of community & justice. The other innovative feature of the book is that the law is explained by reference to the different stages of the relationship; entering a lease regulating leases managing leasehold property & so on. The stages of the relationship provide the structure for the book. Most landlord & tenant books set out the common law rules in the opening chapters & then deal with the legislative regime for each individual sector later in the book. By instead setting the law in the different stages of the relationship this book is able to show where the shared issues faced by landlord & tenant receive a common legal response & where the different context of the leasehold relationship has led to a variety in legal rules. Landlord & tenant law is now very different from the common law of 100 years ago. In describing the modern law (or laws) the unique style of this book enables the reader to see how the commonalities & the contrasts between the law in the different sectors can be explained by reference to the way that leases are differently used & regulated. ...
