Remedies in Australian Private Law presents a detailed and scholarly map of remedies under Australian private law. Clearly structured and accessibly written, the text takes a black-letter law approach to remedies in common law, equity and statute, and develops a framework for understanding the principles of private law remedies and their practical application. The third edition has been updated to include recent cases in remedial law, offering students clear links between principles and practice, and provides more in-depth coverage of compensation under the Australian Consumer Law. Reasonable fee awards and disgorgement and accounts of profit are now addressed in separate chapters to reflect recent changes in international case law. Written by an expert author team, Remedies in Australian Private Law enables students and practitioners to develop a coherent understanding of remedial law and to analyse legal problems and identify appropriate remedial solutions.
