Equity and Trusts in Australia offers an accessible introduction to the principles of Australian equity and trusts law for students, linking key doctrines to their wider relationship with the law. The text covers foundational topics of equity and trusts law, including the nature of equity, fiduciary relationships and trust structures. This edition has been revised to include recent landmark decisions and a new chapter on termination and variation of trusts. Each chapter concludes with a guide to the online resources, which encourage students to extend their knowledge of the content through further reading, practice problems and discussion topics. Written by a team of experienced authors, Equity and Trusts in Australia is an ideal text for students undertaking this area of study for the first time. A Sourcebook on Equity and Trusts in Australia is also available and provides cases and primary legal materials to accompany Equity and Trusts in Australia.
