Additional text
The book's orientation is global, its subject matter vast and detailed. It covers analyses of the laws and the often parallel, as well as contrasting, approaches to trusts over a range of jurisdictions. It purports to identify trends and developments, explains the author, but does not attempt to provide âa comprehensive operational guidance to the laws of any particular jurisdiction.
