Gary Watt, Reader in Law, Warwick Law School, The University of Warwick
""Unlike other textbooks, [Gary Watt's Equity and Trusts Law: Directions] looks at the law in an innovative and engaging way....[it] is well-written and provides an excellent overview of what is often considered a stuffy and difficult area of law....To my mind, this is an invaluable text for students studying equity and trusts law." - Student Law Journal"
