Equity and Trusts Summary

Equity and Trusts by Alastair Hudson

  • The breadth of coverage that this book offers is unmatched by its competitors - it really is comprehensive, providing much more depth of analysis than others on the commercial context of trusts, for example.

  • Hudson is not afraid to tackle topics which are complex and challenging for students and which are therefore sometimes glossed over by other books, or couched in impenetrable academic language.

  • Hudson's extensive use of illustrative examples throughout the text affords the book clarity of explanation and helps to bring complex and challenging topics to life.

  • Hudson draws out areas of contemporary interest and controversy and takes time to explain academic debates really clearly for students.

  • The book masters the balance between consideration of trusts in the domestic environment and in the commercial arena to offer students a comprehensive and balanced overall view of the subject.

Equity and Trusts Reviews

Praise for Ninth Edition:

'One of the book's great strengths is its clear exposition of some very difficult areas of the law, moving seamlessly from points that puzzle students to points that puzzle practitioners. Other strengths are the breadth of its approach, the fact that it is extremely up to date, the freshness and vividness of its approach and its willingness to place equity in a wider context . . . The student will enjoy a clear, lively and challenging account of the subject matter. The practitioner will find the book well worth consulting for its clear exposition of the basic principles and of their application in difficult areas.' - New Law Journal, Swales Willis
