Title : Principles of Equity and the Law of Trusts (Principles of Law S.)
Author : Alastair Hudson
Rating : 3 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Thorough but a little careless
You certainly except a book of this size to offer a very thorough account of the subject matter. Andrew Hudson does not dissappoint in this respect, His clear knowledge and clarity are a breath of fresh air for this student who tends to find that most law books are written by reseasrchers eager to impress their friends but not to help the student. Cavendish, the publishers are the exception to this trend, and despite being unfashionable as a result are certainly gasining popularity with the undergraduate market.
Perhaps the only downside to this book, is the carelessness of teh editing. The subject matter is difficult enough without having to secong guess the writer.
The book is certainly overpriced, but the difficulty in finding readable textbooks means this must be overlooked. Go and Buy it.

Title : Trusts Law: Text and Materials (Law in Context S.)
Author : Graham Moffat
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Moffat Equity and Trusts
This book is extremely accessible and makes an extremely hard topic in law a great deal easier to understand. The writer avoids fancy words, which can often be confusing, and sticks to the relevant information which results in commendable clarity.
This book was a great help to me during the second year of my law degree and I would recommend it to any undergraduate.

Title : Equity and Trusts (Nutshells S.)
Author : Angela Sydenham
Rating : 3 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Good, but needs updating due to the Third Party Rights Act
The Nutshell books are good revision aids, but it is not helpful when they do not keep up with the current position regarding the law.
The introduction of the Third Party Contract Rights Act has fundamental implications on this area of law. If it is being taught and examined upon, then the publisher needs to update this book.

Title : Principles of Equity and the Law of Trusts (Principles of Law S.)
Author : Alastair Hudson
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : our lives, as law students, has been made easier
As a Greek student whose native language is not English, I found myself pleased to be reading such a book. Equity and trusts is not an easy subject;nevertheless, this book is very easily understood. Its structure is clear with all the important points sufficiently highlighted to the reader. It is not a law textbook that just sets out the law. It includes useful commentary, without yet going into futile and long discussions. I would really recommend this book to every law student. It is a guarantee of success in this subject of law.

Title : How to Settle an Estate: A Manual for Executors and Trustees
Author : Charles K. Plotnick
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : I'm buying it for my clients!
The best basic "how-to" guide I've seen for executors and administrators. Not "do-it-yourself" tear-out forms, just good, practical, up-to-date (in '98) advice. I'm sending complimentary copies to my executor and trustee clients (via Amazon.com, natch!)
