Fisher and Lightwood's Law of Mortgage (Australian Edition)

This is the essential text on mortgages and securities. Written by leading authorities in the area, and frequently cited in the courts, this well respected book is a market leader. Maintaining the high standards of the classic English text, this second Australian edition is thoroughly revised to take into account the legislative and case law movement in the Australian market since the first Australian edition in 1995. In particular, this edition has greater emphasis on the Torrens system when dealing with mortgages of real property. 

Including detailed text on all aspects of mortgages of both real and personal property, it also includes material on liens, mortgage by deposit, bills of sale legislation in various states, slip mortgages, avoiding conduct, limitations of actions in various states, and mortgagees in possession. With up-to-date coverage and comprehensive treatment of principles, legislation and case law (Australia, UK and other Commonwealth countries), this authoritative text is the seminal text in Australia on mortgage law.
