With apologies for duplication: congratulations to Rob Stevens on the publication of The Laws of Restitution (OUP 2023). From the blurb:

 

‘In The Laws of Restitution, Robert Stevens shows that there is no unified law of restitution or unjust enrichment. Instead, there are seven or eight different kinds of private law claim, depending on how you count them, which have nothing important in common one with another that have been grouped together by commentators. Few of these claims have anything to do with enrichment, and what is restituted differs between them. Like all private law claims, those gathered here concern (in)justice between individuals, but they have no further unity. Many of them are not based upon an agreement or a wrong, but that negative feature has no utility. “Restitution” or “unjust enrichment’ should cease to be discussed as unified areas of law.’

 

More details, including the Table of Contents, are available here: https://global.oup.com/academic/product/the-laws-of-restitution-9780192885029?cc=gb&lang=en& The web site shows publication on 9 February so special kudos to Rob for retroactive publication.

 

The attached flyer gives you a code that generates a 30% discount. Rob has said that he would be pleased to receive comments from all and sundry at  robert.stevens@law.ox.ac.uk although asks that no one notify him of typos until six months have elapsed.

Bravo Rob!!
