A Sourcebook on Equity and Trusts in Australia presents a selection of relevant cases and instructive commentary to introduce students to the study of Australian equity and trusts law. Designed to follow the structure of the third edition of Equity and Trusts in Australia, it can also be used as a freestanding casebook. The third edition has been fully updated to discuss recent landmark decisions, including Ancient Order of Foresters in Victoria Friendly Society Ltd v Lifeplan Australia Friendly Society Ltd (2018) 265 CLR 1 and Smethurst v Commissioner of Police [2020] HCA 14. Extracts are accompanied by detailed commentary, and additional notes and discussion questions throughout each chapter enhance and test students' understanding of complex cases and issues. Written by a team of experienced authors, A Sourcebook on Equity and Trusts in Australia offers an accessible introduction to the application of equity and trusts law.
