Reviews of the Fourth Edition:
"Obviously of great significance to all charity lawyers. We have all been waiting for this new edition with baited breath!" Christopher McCall QC

"A comprehensive and up to date guide on the whole area of the law and practice relating to charities…at all times provides practical and detailed synergy of the law and procedure…I feel sure that this book will prove to be a vital and important addition to the library of any Charity law practitioner." Henry Frydenson, STEP Journal, 2010

"A reader picking up the book and reading it from start to finish would find themselves on a sensible (and enjoyable) journey through the law and practice of charities...The text does not assume a detailed knowledge of charity law and is therefore suitable for a relative newcomer to this field. However, the text also contains sufficiently detailed analysis for it to be a valuable resource for the seasoned practitioner looking to deal with the latest conundrum presented by a client." Private Client Business, Issue 3, 2011

"There is no need for me to add my endorsement to a work which is recognised throughout the common law world as a work of exceptional scholarship and which clearly and correctly deals with principles of law applicable to charitable trusts and arrangements." Mr Justice P W Young AO, Australian Law Journal, (2011) 85 ALJ 185

"His 'suberb, detailed analysis of charity law' is such that he is the author of one of the gold standard textbooks on charity law." Chambers Directory, 2011

"An indispensable research tool for anyone studying the law of charity. It is a well-written and intuitively organized treatise authored by one of charity law's most esteemed and widely cited authors." Adam Parachin, UBC Law Review, 2012
