    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    The seventh edition of Trusts & Equity builds on the successful approach taken in previous editions and continues to offer students a thorough and enthusiastic analysis of this complex field of law.

    An academically rigorous, yet highly readable textbook on the law of trusts, which encourages students to appreciate the scope and boundaries of a topic before engaging with the detail and issues it presents. By drawing on his expertise in teaching, writing, and research, Gary Watt brings the subject to life with useful analogies and memorable references to history and surrounding cultural contexts. The law is placed within a unique conceptual framework, examining trusts in light of the four
    key perspectives of precedent, principle, policy, and pragmatism, and explaining key decisions with clarity and rigour. Watt's engaging approach helps students to actively engage with the subject and to think critically about its central issues.

    Avoiding the dense text and unwieldy weight of many textbooks on this topic, Trusts & Equity offers a concise and clear account of the law, providing a compelling and stimulating companion to the study of trusts.
