    For 60 years, courts and practitioners have turned to the insights and analysis contained in Powell on Real Property. Updated 4 times a year, the 17-volume treatise (Main Treatise) includes many topics not originally part of the 1949 version -- for example, green buildings.

    Now the busy practitioner and researcher can reach for the new, highly abridged, 1-volume Michael Allan Wolf Desk Edition of the treatise. This is a new soft-bound, extremely condensed adaptation of Powell carefully crafted by the General Editor of the Main Treatise, Professor Michael Allan Wolf, to become the version of Powell you can keep at your desk or carry with you as you begin your real property law research and analysis.

    Valuable as a compact stand-alone resource, the Powell on Real Property: Michael Allan Wolf Desk Edition can also easily be used in tandem with the more comprehensive Main Treatise to delve deeper into real property law because its chapters and sections retain the same numbering system as the Main Treatise.
