Common law; Equity & trusts

This book presents a clear, carefully-analysed picture of the operation of equity today, across the common law world. Rather than revisit the abstract debate as to whether or not equity has ‘fused’ with the common law, it focuses on specific equitable principles and doctrines. Expert contributors step back and take a wider view of those doctrines, examining how they can best be understood today, and how they might develop in the future. This will prove invaluable to practitioners and courts (at first instance as well as appellate level), allowing them to navigate the constantly-growing mass of case law. Drawing on expertise from across the worlds of academia, practice and the bench, this seminal collection provides the most illuminating picture available of how equity operates.

Reviews for Equity Today: 150 Years after the Judicature Reforms

This admirable collection of essays by distinguished scholars and practitioners … contains much food for thought. Any practitioner with a case on any of the areas featured in this collection, or anyone writing something involving an issue discussed here, would do well to read carefully the relevant essay in the collection. The case for the continued relevance of Equity to the modern law in common law jurisdictions is well made and the Burrows rule is honoured in the observance. -- David Capper, Queen’s University Belfast, UK * Lloyd's Maritime and Commercial Law Quarterly *
