`For anyone looking for an equity and trusts cases and materials text, Todd & Watt's Cases & Materials on Equity and Trusts is a very good option. Its cases and materials are well-selected (and clearly separated from the commentary) meaning valuable time will be saved searching for materials. The commentary is also well-written and provides some useful analysis of difficult legal principles.' The Student Law Journal `Relevant extracts from case-law, statutes and journals (which are usefully highlighted with a grey background to make them stand out from the rest of the text) are then interspersed with helpful commentary.' The Student Law Journal `Each case report includes an excellent brief overview of the facts together with the decision before tackling the relevant extracts from the judgment: this really allows the reader to put the judgments in context before reading them.'
