The work explains the essential characteristics of the subject, highlighting difficult and developing areas by reference to both established and modern cases and legislation.

In essence the book explains the essential characteristics of the subject through areas such as formation, regulation and dissolution of partnership and has inciteful commentary that even experienced lawyers find useful.
