Additional Information
Trusts and Equity provides a detailed and conceptual analysis of an area of law that students sometimes find difficult. Watt concentrates on those areas of the subject that are most relevant in the contemporary arena, such as the commercial context. The author utilises his expertise in teaching, writing and researching to enliven the text with helpful analogies and memorable references to extra-legal sources such as history, literature and film. In this way he also stimulates students to engage critically with the theory. Online Resource Centre Trusts and Equity is accompanied by an Online Resource Centre, containing the following resources: - A video podcast from the author - Essay questions, problem scenarios and general answer guidance - Web links - Regular updates
