Description
This book provides a concise yet comprehensive coverage on the law of trusts. It is intended for anyone interested in an introduction to the subject, in particular students pursuing degree and professional programmes of study. Also, students will find it useful as a revision aid. The book contains clear headings and subheadings with itemised lists of principles designed for the reader to acquire a quick understanding of the law which is considered rather complex and difficult. This is characteristic of the law of trusts and indeed the law of real property (which should first be studied). The book contains references to the main legislation on trust law and many of the recent and older cases. Their inclusion is a necessity as the law of trusts is basically a case law subject interspersed with legislation from time to time as may be required either to reverse a decision from the highest court or to supplement the case law (to remove any serious complexity or to modernise the law in the 21st century). An example of this is perpetuity period which by legislation is now fixed at 125 years, rather than measured by lives in being.
