Summary: Neighborhood Law Development since 1932
Comment: Neighborhood law and principle as such can be traced since the decision of the House of Lords in Donoghue v Stevenson (1932).In the present book by Cora jordan though civil remedies of Law of Torts can be precisely located but precise evolutionary meaning of Neighborhood law has been meticulously concealed by the Author.
Lord Atkin defined not only neighbor in the terms of law but he also traced the evolutionary meaning and relevance of this term. It can be located that the meaning, rights and duties of a neighbor are well settled since then i.e,1932.
The present book could have been more elegantly presented had the Author kept in view the new dimensions of rights and duties.
Though it can not be said that the neighborhood law is an archaic concept but a textbook like the present one by Cora Jordan requires enumeration of twentyfirst century rights, duties and consequential remedies. Even today, it can be noted that many of the rights have not required the shape of the so called enforceable rights, whereby a remedy could be sought by a neighbor.In such circumstances the age old maxim "ubi jus ibi remedium" still becomes relevant. Apart from these inconsistencies this book is worth reading. The remedies discussed in the book are all relevant and more so this book can be used as a generalised tort book. The effort of the Author is commendable.

Summary: You Can Choose Your Home, But Not Your Neighbors !!!!
Comment: If you don't know the ins and outs of on how do deal with neighbors who think they have more rights than you on YOUR property, this book will set you and your neighbor straight.
As a homeowner with a neighbor who is "asocial" (and thieving) who believes he can do whatever he wants, this book helped me to understand the terms to decipher the local zoning laws and how to use the legal system to keep my trespassing neighbor in check.
The author writes with a clear and understandable style while explaining the possible variant and potentially confusing local zoning laws.
Crazy, selfish, bull-headed, antisocial, uncaring, disrespectful, ignorant or sneaky neighbors in reality do exist. Wishfull thinking won't help you change the neighbor problem, but this book can help guide you (and your neighbor) back to reality...................
