Reviews

“a work of real scholarship, which makes a significant contribution to the literature on Scots law” – Rt. Hon. Lord Hope of Craighead

“we have obtained great assistance from… Stephen Thomson’s work, The Nobile Officium, the first monograph to be published on the subject” – Lord Drummond Young, in Cumbria County Council, Petitioners [2016] CSIH 92

“Stephen Thomson has done much to promote understanding of this jurisdiction… [H]e writes with admirable clarity and precision” – Prof. J.D. Ford, University of Aberdeen

“the author structured a book around concepts which make the understanding of the equitable jurisdiction more straightforward but, more importantly perhaps, easier for the practitioner to navigate its practical application… [I]f it is to be found, then one will assuredly find it referenced in this authoritative text.” – David J. Dickson, Solicitor-Advocate
