Reviews
"Merrill and Smith, both renowned scholars of property law, apply an accessible theoretical framework to illuminate principles that govern the resolution of disputes over resources. This sunlight brings ancient-and, in some instances, superficially musty-doctrines to life." --Robert Ellickson Walter E. Meyer Professor of Property and Urban Law, Yale Law School "Merrill and Smith's book is nothing short of a marvel. It gives shape and direction to a field often considered to be diffuse and unmanageable. This volume is full of ideas that enliven all aspects of property law, showing the reader why these topics are interesting and topical." --Carol M. Rose Lohse Chair in Water and Natural Resources, The University of Arizona James E. Rogers College of Law
