Alastair Hudson’s Equity and Trusts is the ideal textbook for undergraduate courses on the law of trusts and equitable remedies. It provides a clear, current and comprehensive account of the subject.

It has been cited as being authoritative in the courts of numerous countries.

The eleventh edition of Equity and Trusts continues to offer the most comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of the law of Equity and Trusts, while still presenting a lively and thoughtful account of the issues raised by it. It probes the geopolitical problems which trusts law has created, as well as the traditional technical problems. New cases in this edition include Guest v Guest; Byers v Saudi National Bank; Stoffel v Grondona; CPS v Aquila; Lehtimäki v Cooper; Stanford Bank International Ltd v HSBC plc, Re Gamenation (UK) Ltd; Davies v Ford; Hotel Portfolio II UK Ltd v Ruhan; Butler-Sloss v Charity Commission; O’Neill v Holland; Williams v Williams; Hudson v Hathaway, and many others besides.
