Author:  David Johnston, Reinhard Zimmermann 

Unjustified enrichment is one of the most intellectually vital areas of private law. However, little unanimity exists among civil-law and common-law legal systems about structuring this important branch of the law of obligations. This book analyzes a range of key issues which are considered respectively by a representative of a common-law, as well as a civil-law system. The approach highlights similarities and differences between systems, and what each can learn from the other.
