An Outline of the Law of Partnership explains and illustrates the major legal principles governing the formation, operation and termination of partnerships and details how the principles work in practice.  This 5th edition updates all relevant statutory provisions and includes references to all of the major (and many minor) new cases. It also expands existing explanations and, where relevant, includes additional examples to illustrate how the law applies in practice.
