Reviews
'The general editors and the contributors are to be commended for undertaking such a bold piece of work that can justifiably claim to be a go-to reference for the comparative study of time-limited interests in land, striking a balance between historical, domestic and comparative scholarship in a pragmatic manner.' Malcolm M. Combe, Zeitschrift fur Europaisches Privatrecht
