Reviews

Farnsworth's terrific book covers an amazing amount of material on the law of restitution in a concise, insightful, and appealing fashion. It should contribute greatly to bringing this important branch of the law out of the shadows. --Henry E. Smith, Harvard Law School


"""Immensely important. Farnsworth's book is a major contribution to the field, providing a succinct, clear, and theoretically informed summary of the doctrine. I have little doubt that it will be of frequent use in law schools, courtrooms, and law offices alike, thus providing support to the belated revival of restitution in the United States."" (Hanoch Dagan, Tel-Aviv University)"""
