Specific Performance, Injunctions, Rectification and Equitable Damages

Equitable Remedies is commonly regarded as the most thorough and in-depth treatise on equitable remedies in the common law world today. Described by Sir Owen Dixon in its first edition as "the best legal book to have come out of Australia", the seventh edition of Equitable Remedies continues to uphold its reputation as an up-to-date and reliable source of information with respect to injunctions, specific performance, rectification and equitable damages.

The seventh edition has been updated by reference to such important recent decisions as those in the House of Lords in Actionstrength Ltd v International Glass Engineering; R (Rusbridger) v Attorney General; Cream Holdings Ltd v Banerjee; and Fourie v Le Roux and those of the High Court in ABC v Lenah Game Meats Pty Ltd and ABC v O’Neill.
