The subject of Leases in Scotland has not been tackled fully in text since 1967. This new title published under the auspices of the Scottish Universities Law Institute remedies that requirement at a time when economic conditions have led to increased activity in residential letting combined with increased litigation in the commercial sector as disputes arise between landlords and tenants. This brand new book brings together a team of specialist authors to give an in-depth and complete treatment of the general law in this subject area, and also covers the most significant specific types of lease, namely commercial leases, residential leases and agricultural leases, especially in the context of that general law.

Leases is a thoroughly modern and up-to-date book, providing expert insight on current issues including: • The law relating to agricultural tenancies – consolidated in 1991, radically overhauled in 2003 and further amended in 2011 and 2012 with proposals for more reform yet.

• The question of interpretation of lease – raised in recent court cases with this relevant case law discussed in the text.

• Restrictions on the length of leases – always a hot topic.

• Human Rights in relation to leases – an extensive chapter is included on this subject A combination of specialist knowledge, in-depth treatment and practical advice makes Leases an essential text for solicitors, advocates and all others with an interest in this area of law. This is set to become the ‘go to’ work on the subject, with guaranteed answers and respected advice for the busy practitioner.

The first complete text on constitutional law since the historic referendum on Scottish independence.

Constitutional Law provides the first complete account of the constitutional framework within which the government of Scotland has been carried on since devolution in 1999, and of the governance of Scotland as it stands in the wake of September’s historic referendum on Scottish independence.

A very different book from J D B Mitchell’s predecessor in this series, which was first published fifty years ago, this new title charts the long march to devolved government in Scotland. After examining Scotland’s current constitutional arrangements, as set out in the Scotland Act and the Human Rights Act, it explores the separate Scottish, United Kingdom and European dimensions of the contemporary governance of Scotland. This text is written from a Scottish perspective, differentiating it from the majority of UK constitutional law writing. Written by one of the UK’s leading constitutional lawyers, this significant and timely work offers the most complete and in-depth treatment of the subject and is an essential tool for solicitors and any others with a professional interest in the governance of Scotland.
