This new edition is designed to complement modern degree courses in equity and the law of trusts. Attention is given to traditional deed created trusts and also to modern trusts in commercial contexts, which are of increasing importance. The emphasis is on the intellectual and conceptual challenges arising from equity and trusts in their practical settings. Whilst the book is not intended to be a comprehensive text, it seeks to provide the reader with accurate summaries of the major cases and to stimulate reflective study through textual notes and questions. Summaries of the principal statutes are also included where necessary.
