Reviews for The Law of Rescission

Excellent * J. D. Heydon, M. J. Leeming, P. G. Turner, editors of Meagher, Gummow & Lehane's Equity: Doctrines & Remedies (5th edition, LexisNexis Australia 2014) * A remarkable work of practical scholarship... should find its way on to the shelves of every law library (including those of courts who do serious civil work) and of every office or set of chambers where property or mercantile law is practised. On any view it is work of high distinction. * [2008] Conv 350 *
