Description

This second edition of Sarah Worthington's Equity maintains the clear ambitions of the first. It sets out the basic principles of equity, and illustrates them by reference to commercial and domestic examples of their operation. The book comprehensively and succinctly describes the role of equity in creating and developing rights and obligations, remedies and procedures that differ in important ways from those provided by the common law itself. Worthington delivers a complete reworking of the material traditionally described as equity. In doing this, she provides a thorough examination of the fundamental principles underpinning equity's most significant incursions into the modern law of property, contract, tort, and unjust enrichment. In addition, she exposes the possibilities, and the need, for coherent substantive integration of common law and equity. Such integration she perceives as crucial to the continuing success of the modern common law legal system. This book provides an accessible and elementary exploration of equity's place in our modern legal system, whilst also tackling the most taxing and controversial questions which our dual system of law and equity raises.

Media Reviews

Review from previous edition "...she writes in simple and meaningful terms (without being simplistic) and generally without sacrificing accuracy" Common Law World Review
"...her analysis of the issues is clear and crisp." Common Law World Review
"Worthington has produced a monumental work...No one who is interested in the future development of the law will want to be without it; and no one who has any part to play in that process can afford to be." The Rt Hon The Lord Millett
"An excellent example of Worthington's lucid style is provided by her exposition of 'mere equity', a concept that most law students (and, I am sure, many equity and property lawyers) struggle to come to grips with." Common Law World Review
