NOTES
Introduction: Who gets what and why -- First come, last served -- Possession is one-tenth of the law -- I reap what you sow -- My home is not my castle -- Our bodies, not our selves -- The meek shall inherit very little -- The future of ownership, and the world -- Epilogue: The toddler's rules of ownership
"A hidden set of rules governs who owns what--explaining everything from whether you can recline your airplane seat to why HBO lets you borrow a password illegally--and in this lively and entertaining guide, two acclaimed law professors reveal how things become "mine.""--
