Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In preparing the Seventh Edition, the authors remained true to the features that have made Wills, Trusts, and Estates a long-time favorite of law students and law professors such as:

- the late Jesse Dukeminier's unique blend of wit, erudition, insight, and playfulness

- coverage of all key topics, clearly and logically organized

- human-interest cases that are engaging to read and enjoyable to teach

- well-written notes, questions, and problems

- cartoons, illustrations, and photographs that provide humor and visual commentary

- comprehensive Teacher's Manual that answers every question and problem, provides commentary on cases and articles excerpted in the main text, and offers deeper analysis and contextual observations to assist in fostering lively classroom discussion

Scrupulously revised to maintain currency in all aspects of Wills, Trusts, and Estates law, the Seventh Edition includes:

- updates reflecting the ALI's and NCCUSL's recent law reform efforts

- important new case law

- enhanced coverage of current topics of interest

- updated tax coverage

- Teacher's Manual available on CD-ROM

Book News Annotation:

This is the revised edition of a text designed for use in a course on trusts and decedents' estates and as an introduction to estate planning. The authors note that they are interested in function over form and therefore have pruned away mechanical matters, such as a step-by-step discussion of how to probate a will and settle an estate, that can be found elsewhere; they've also sought out the historical roots of modern law to illuminate its continuing growth. They declare the text's philosophy: "In a changing reality the human drama abides. Trusts and estates is a field concerned fundamentally with people."
