<i>Equity, Trusts and Commerce</i> offers something for everyone, students, practitioners, and academics. While students may read the essays to deepen the understanding of the interaction of equity and commercial law, practitioners will certainly appreciate the theoretical discussions of case law and the several practical implications ... This work definitely enriches Hart’s series in Private Law, and is a must have in every common law lawyer’s (but not only) shelf.

Unrivalled scholarship examining the fundamental doctrines and principles of private law.
This monograph series brings together in one place two types of book: works which examine in-depth the fundamental doctrines and principles of private law, and works which engage with the theoretical underpinnings of private law. The series thus aims to contribute to ever-evolving debates about the nature of private law such as problems of classification and taxonomy, remedies, the relationship with public law and the boundaries of private law generally.
The series includes, but is not confined to, works on contract, tort, unjust enrichment, equity, property and the conflict of laws, welcoming work which intersects with other fields of study to enable a deeper understanding of private law theory and practice.
