Review of previous edition

"This handbook has been the profession's lodestar - the book you reach for when your brain whispers, 'surely someone's written this down before'. Frances Silverman once again delivers a volume that is equal parts comfort blanket and compliance manual...The 32nd edition lands in a property market that has barely caught its breath. Between the Leasehold and Freehold Reform Act 2024, the Building Safety Act, and the incoming Data (Use and Access) Act 2025, there is scarcely a paragraph of the law left untouched. Silverman manages to corral this legislative menagerie into a readable order, without losing her dry wit or patience with poor drafting. The new preface, dated 1 August 2025, reads like a dispatch from the front - concise, realistic and quietly heroic about the sheer velocity of change." Anna Newport.
