The Law of Contract
RAYMOND FRIEL
Lawyers and students of the law need to have
access to a text on contract that will provide
them with instant answers to the law applied in
the courts. They also need to be aware of the
growing international nature of contracts and
the huge impact statutory provisions, both
from the Oireachtas and the European Union,
are having on the regulation of contractual
relationships. This book analyses some of the
conflicts and controversies surrounding this
crucial area, giving an insight as to how the
courts might be persuaded to rationalise many
of the legal rules that emerged in the 18th
century but which do not make sense in
today's environment. Some key advantages of
the work are:
- Clarity and accessibility: it presents a lucid
exposition of contract law which is both
readily accessible and comprehensive.
- Authoritative: each legal point is supported
by the highest authority with fully
referenced citations.
- Research material: extensive citation of
both case law and legal literature from
around the common law world acts as a
ready pool of reference for the legal
practitioner and student.

Equity and the Law of
Trusts in Ireland
HILARY DELANY
This book provides a coherent and
thorough examination and analysis of an
area of the law which is sorely in need of
an up-to-date text. In addition to the
comprehensive treatment of traditional
topics such as equitable maxims and
doctrines, it contains clear and detailed
analysis of increasingly dynamic equitable
concepts such as the constructive trust.
Areas of growing practical importance, in
particular equitable remedies, are examined
in depth and useful comparisons are made
with the position in other common law
jurisdictions. The author not only clarifies
recognised aspects of the subject but also
provides an insight into likely future
trends in this crucial area of the law.
