    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:

    Trusts and Equity, 3e 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.

    An accompanying Online Resource Centre, drawing together all 3 books written by Gary Watt, includes a sound bite of Gary explaining how the books should be used in teaching and how the web resources complement each book. Students will find the essay questions and problem scenarios together with the guide answers especially useful for reinforcing their learning and supporting their revision. Web links and regular updates ensure that readers have access to the latest developments in the
    subject.

    Review of first edition: What sets this book apart from many of its competitors is the clarity of the exposition of the law for the student in particular. Indeed, this is a book which engages interest and is highly readable...a superb student text on the law of equity and trusts. Graham Virgo
