Bøker i Hart Studies in Private Law-serien

Every day, large numbers of altruistic individuals, in the absence of any legal duty, provide substantial and essential services for elderly and disabled people. In doing so, many suffer financial and other disadvantages. This book considers the scope for a "private law" approach to rewarding, supporting or compensating carers.

Featuring the work of leading scholars from the UK, Germany, South Africa, Canada, Hong Kong and Australia, the essays undertake critical and comparative analysis of the Restatement, and offer fresh insights into the rules that it articulates.
