Presented and written in a friendly and engaging style, Dr Brian Sloan continues to update Borkowski's classic textbook which is perfectly pitched for today's undergraduate students. Considerable attention is given to the area's rich and evolving case-law, illustrating the relevance of the law to modern life; the central issues and academic debates surrounding inheritance are discussed fully.
New to this edition chapter nine, Family provision, has been restructured to include Ilott v The Blue Cross and subsequent case law, an expanded section on inheritance tax and more diagrams on key concepts and processes, all presented in a clear design to aid understanding and ease navigation.
