This comprehensive analysis of the principles and practice of international commercial fraud claims provides a readily accessible and detailed reference source for all those involved in commerical fraud litigation. The new edition includes an updated and much expanded treatment of all chapters in the light of recent developments, a more detailed treatment of interim relief (and sanctions for non- compliance) to reflect the increasing importance of these topics in this area, as well as the introduction of new chapters on contempt of court, lifting the corportate veil, interim receivers, sham trusts and proprietaru claims.

Nobody familiar with Paul McGrath's work as a practitioner will be surprised that as an author he does not duck legal difficulties: he engages with them and identifies uncertainties that good lawyers should confront. His observations are always to the point; every chapter has insightful comments; clichés are analysed; platitudes are destroyed.
