"Titles in the Core Text series take the reader straight to the heart of the subject, providing focused, concise, and reliable guides for students at all levels. The Law of Trusts provides perceptive analysis and original and thought-provoking commentary to give students a grounding in what is considered to be a difficult subject. The book introduces the controversies surrounding the topic in a clear way allowing the student reader to appreciate the subject's theoretical issues and difficulties, engaging the reader and giving an all-round picture of the key issues relating to the subject. Each chapter of his edition has been thoroughly revised to bring into focus the modern law of trusts. New to this edition, Chapters 4 and 11, examine important trusts which rarely get significant coverage in their own right: the modern discretionary trust, the solicitor-agent trust, the Quistclose trust, and the unincorporated association trust"-- Provided by publisher.
