Remedies

Remedies, now in its second edition, is a welcome addition to the library of any private law practitioner, covering a broad array of remedies, both at common law, in equity and based in statute … The book’s style is simple and accessible. Its anticipated audience covers a wide spectrum of experience from law student to practitioner. There is much in this book for the experienced practitioner. The book serves as a useful springboard providing a comprehensive overview identifying the key principles and case law and important doctrinal disputes and lines of authority. Key principles are succinctly explained. Although intended to be accessible, Wright has achieved that accessibility without the cost of over simplification. With an eye to the student market, and the increasing appetite of law schools ?to teach remedies, whether as a stand-alone subject or incorporated within ?key subject areas such as torts and equity, each chapter concludes with a problem question (with answer). For ?the practitioner this part of each chapter will be of limited utility (although not without a certain degree of passing curiosity and interest), however, it? forms only a small part of each chapter and does not detract from the overall usefulness of the book for the private law practitioner.
