Opis

This book deals with the legal questions relating to the applicable law that arise in cross-border litigation when litigants invoke the principles of English equity or analogous doctrines from other jurisdictions. It analyzes in detail both whether the forum's equitable doctrines should necessarily apply (concluding not), and then the various different ways in which equitable doctrines can be characterised.

Recenzje

...he has produced a thorough and insightful overview of a topic that few have taken on before...Yeo proceeds to show how the traditional choice of law rules and approaches will apply. It is in this part of the book that the author's skills and knowledge as a conflicts lawyer become apparent...The increasing practical importance of the book's subject matter means that it should be of great interest not only to the academic but also to the practitioner...It is a very interesting book to read cover to cover: the analysis is clear and the use of diagrams helpful...as a largely theoretical analysis it is an excellent book on a topic that few have attempted to fathom.
