“This highly analytical work is to be commended. Its comprehensive approach embraces court decisions and scholars' views across a variety of jurisdictions and generations. It also clearly explains the advantages or deficiencies of each of the orthodox views, before putting forward the author's own theory on the subject.” – Dixon Siu Chung Tse,

“Liew has valuable insights to offer on each of the varieties of constructive trust he discusses. Although firmly grounded in English law, his arguments are supported by a wealth of authority drawn from all common law jurisdictions. The quality of academic literature on constructive trusts is high, and this scholarly work is a worthy addition to the genre. It can be warmly recommended to anyone with an interest in the rational development of the law of trusts.” – Michael Bryan, University of Melbourne,

The analysis provided by Dr. Ying Khai Liew should provide assistance to Canadian lawyers looking for insights on the application of proprietary estoppel in Canadian law.” – Tim Youdan,
