The essays in this volume are dedicated to Gareth Jones, the retiring Downing Professor of English Law at the University of Cambridge. His contribution to legal scholarship has been immense, particularly in the fields of legal history, the law of trusts, charities law and, most famously, the law of restitution. The publication of the first edition of the Law of Restitution, which he co-authored with Lord Goff, stimulated a renaissance in the study of a subject which had previously lain dormant. The effect of its publication on English legal scholarship has been profound and enduring.



In these essays, written by a group of the world's leading restitution scholars, the opportunity is taken to conduct a fresh appraisal of the development of the subject - to look, in other words, at the past, present, and future of the law of restitution.



Contributors: John Baker, Peter Birks, Justice Finn, Roy Goode, Ewan McKendrick, Justice McLachlin, Sir Peter Millett, Lord Nicholls of Birkenhead, Richard Nolan, Janet O'Sullivan, Graham Virgo (as well as shorter contributions from invited commentators).
Industry Reviews

"[These essays] are written to a high general standard of scholarship and originality, and they aptly reflect Professor Jones' own distinguished contributions to the fields of trusts law, legal history, and the law of restitution." --Trust Law International

"...this collection is the state of the art as far as the law of restitution is concerned and cannot be missed by anyone with an interest in the subject.... It is a fitting tribute indeed to the person who, along with Lord Goff of Chieveley (who has penned the preface), can justifiably be said to have created the subject in this country." --Law Quarterly Review
