Critical Acclaim
‘This exceptionally informative new text analyses with admirable depth and learning the available suite of injunctive remedies falling within the specialist remit of its subject matter. The book is written in a manner that is at once accessible and reflective of the author’s immersion in this field of law over a lengthy and esteemed academic career.’
– The Right Honourable Dame Siobhan Keegan, Lady Chief Justice of Northern Ireland
‘David Capper has drawn from his considerable breadth of knowledge on injunctions and damages in lieu of injunctions to write a book that is both comprehensive and accessible. His text is an important contribution to our understanding, and fills a gap in contemporary scholarship written for judges, lawyers and academics needing to know the current state of the law on injunctions in private law.’
