Review from previous edition the book gets full marks for opening up discussions of several crucial features of property institutions, and for challenging received views on such topics as ownership of one's body and the status of rights to property. All in all, this is a book students of political philosophy should read, and it makes a welcome addition to the body of good work that has been produced on property in the past decade. Indeed, it is probably the best book on property we now have. * David Crossley Dialogue * James Harris has written and admirable book in which he seeks to combine lawyerly insights about property with philosophical insights about justice The book as a whole is laudable achievement and should be studied by anyone interested in the two key concepts designated in the title. * Matthew Kramer, Cambridge Law Journal * There are two particular explanations of why this ambitious project deserves a welcome. They concern, first, the status of arguments about justice and property in political theory; and secondly, the relationship between the study of law and the concerns of political philosophy. * Andrew Reeve, Oxford Journal of Legal Studies * The primary audience for this book will be philosophers of law, who will find the philosophical analysis and arguments about property as it features in Anglo-American law very enlightening. * Peter Vallentyne, Virginia Commonwealth University, Mind, no 108, no 431, July 1999 *
