Property : Principles and Policies, Hardcover by Merrill, Thomas; Smith, Henry, ISBN 1628101024, ISBN-13 9781628101027, Used Good Condition, Free shipping in the US This cas outlines the principles and policies of property law, without emphasis on a specific type of property or organization by traditional subfields, but instead drawing on each of these areas throughout and design principles common to all subfields. This edition moves cases and materials on equity to the chapter on owner sovereignty and its limits, with a new case on abuse of rights; reorganizes the chapter on acquisition and claim scope to highlight questions about what it means to be in possession of a thing or have a right of possession and emphasize the role of possession in delineating the scope of rights, as well as questions of original acquisition; removes some material on intellectual property; moves material on the right of publicity to the chapter on values subject to ownership; and deletes the chapter on property as an instrument of social policy. It merges chapters on government forbearance and takings and replaces old cases with new ones in adverse possession, the numerus clausus principle, security interests, and equitable conversion. It includes new decisions on the sale of human organs, whether anti-discrimination laws apply to roommates or lodgers secured through social media, and the Supreme Court decisions of Horne v. Dept. of Agriculture and Koontz v. St. Johns River Water Management. Anno
