The Law Teacher

Trusts and Equity, now in its eighth edition, is a trusted, clear and engaging explanation of the main principles of this area of law.  The book demystifies this complex subject, without oversimplifying, by means of clear explanations and a focus on contemporary applications of the trust.  It also considers proposals for reform so that the reader gains an understanding of the development of the law. 

This new edition has been thoroughly revised to include recent developments in the law:

-The Charities Act is integrated into the text to indicate the changes that this will bring to each aspect of the current law of charities

-New case-law developments in constructive trusts (Daraydan v Solland, Halton v Guernroy) and on the liability of intermeddling strangers (Barlow Clowes International Ltd  v Eurotrust International Ltd) 

-The changes to the taxation of trusts introduced by the Finance Act 2006

- Recent cases on the ownership of the family home when cohabitees decide to end their relationship, together with a discussion of the Law Commission’s 2006 consultation paper Cohabitation: The Financial Consequences of Relationship Breakdown.

Key features:

* Clearly-distinguished case summaries encourage students to quickly recognise the key cases and differentiate them from surrounding commentary

* New colour text design and larger format enable students to follow the text with ease

* Chapter summaries highlight the main points covered in each chapter, cementing understanding
