It looks at the nature of wills and gives full details of the capacity and formalities for creating valid wills,including special wills, as well as altering and revoking them.

In implementing wills, the principles of construction are dealt with, as well as what happens if a gift fails. There is a comprehensive introduction to the functions and administrative duties of personal representatives, and a substantial chapter covers the highly topical area of family provision.
