This new edition contains extended treatment on several topics, including fiduciary duties, benevolent construction of express trusts, remedial constructive trusts, mental element for recipient liability under constructive trusts, illegality and resulting trusts, validity of exclusion clauses for breach of trust or fiduciary duties, protection of confidential information, as well as joint venture constructive trusts.
