Publisher's Synopsis
When Goff and James published "The Law of Restitution" in 1966, they showed that cases drawn from apparently disparate areas were best understood and explained as applications of an underlying and unifying principle of reversing unjust enrichment. Goff and Jones therefore put restitution on the English legal map as a central and important subject. This volume, which appears 25 years after Goff and James' pioneering work, provides new contributions to the on-going fight for the recognition, development and correct application of the law of restitution.
