Reviews
Legal practitioners, bankers, students and indeed anyone with anything to do with banking would be well advised to buy this comprehensive work even if it involves straining the banker customer relationship ...I have no doubt that much of the professional advice that will be given in the future will be grounded, with justification, on information gleaned from this work. --Commercial Law Practitioner Mr Johnston ... has the skill of making the complicated if not exactly simple, at least readily comprehensible. As a practising solicitor, Mr Johnston deals comprehensively with topics which a practitioner is likely to encounter. In the maze of fine distinctions Mr Johnston points out the way to what are the appropriate principles and undoubtedly will help many practitioners to advise a bank of the prudent steps to take to ensure that all security is enforceable or as the case may be to advise subsequently a borrower or guarantor that all relevant precautions were not to be taken so as to render the security unenforceable. Any lawyer needs to understand and be at ease with the principles of law relating to banking and security in order to apply those principles to the changing circumstances. This book which is written in clear and concise prose makes the task considerably less onerous --Bar Review
