An important national treatise on real property law, Thompson on Real Property, Thomas Editions, was completely revised and modernized in the 1990s by editor-in-chief David A. Thomas and more than 30 other noted legal scholars. Together, they contributed over 100 chapters of up-to-date, comprehensive, and in-depth coverage of real property law, including analysis of such topics as
- adverse possession - agricultural and farm law - constitutional impacts on real property - construction and construction financing - conveyancing procedures - landlord and tenant - inns and innkeepers - international real property issues - petroleum and pipelines - property issues in space law - public and private nuisances - real property issues in weather control - waste
Thompson on Real Property, Thomas Editions, has been cited by the courts hundreds of times, and cited by the highest courts (for example, by the United States Supreme Court in United States v. Craft, 535 U.S. 274 (2002)).
