  The Manual of Housing Law has a succinct but informative style. This edition has new individual paragraph headings for ease of reference and clarity of direction. It has a style that bridges the gap between the needs of the specialist practitioner, the non-lawyer and the student, examining all major aspects of housing law. The main approach of the Manual is to identify the principal housing rights of the tenants and other occupiers and to outline the law affecting the way in which residential property is occupied. The Manual of Housing Law takes full account of the changes in law effected by the Local Government and Housing Act 1989 and the Environmental Protection Act 1990, and the ensuing case law. There is also greater emphasis placed on secured, assured and protected tenancies.

  This 4th edition of Andrew Arden's Manual of Housing Law takes full account of the changes in the law brought about by the Housing and Planning Act 1986 and the Housing Act 1988 . Particular emphasis has been given to the effects on security of tenure, the creation of the new category of the assured tenant, the privatization of the public rented sector, and housing associations. The text examines all major aspects of housing law including: occupation status and owner occupation, security of tenure by rent and housing acts, restricted security, lack of security, harassment and illegal eviction, break-up of relationships, homelessness and disrepair, overcrowding, and multiple occupation and common lodging houses. The manual is designed and written for practitioners and advisers, to keep them abreast of legislative changes and case law developments. The succinct yet informative style bridges the gap between the needs of the specialist practitioner, the non-lawyer and the student. Cases are dated within the text and cross-referencing places each topic in its full practical context.
