More about Property, Tenth Edition, Jesse Dukeminier’s trademark wit, passion, and human interest perspective has made Property one of the best—and best loved—casebooks of all time. A unique blend of authority and good humor, you’ll find a moveable feast of visual interest, compelling cases, and timely coverage of contemporary issues. In the Tenth Edition, the authors have created a thoughtful and thorough revision, true to the spirit of the classic Property text.

Bundle also includes Estates in Land and Future Interests: A Step-by-Step Guide, a user-friendly method for mastering a challenging area of property law. Courtney Cahill, professor of law at Florida State University, joins this edition and contributes sections on posthumously conceived children, defeasible estates, and alternative reproductive technologies. This Sixth Edition highlights and clarifies key technical concepts in each chapter that can be confusing to many students. Sections at the end of most chapters reiterate specific terms and concepts that are indispensable to a thorough mastery of estates in land and future interests. Clear introductions, a host of visual aids, and a process approach untangle and demystify every new term and transaction. Problem sets, study questions, and practice exercises—all available electronically for easy practice—actively engage students in learning estates in land and future interests, step by step.
