I would like to thank Derek Smith for hi s assistance in reviewing a

draft of Chapter 13 for the fourth edition of thi s book, and John Weir,

who made some helpful suggestions for new material to i nclude in this

edition. I am also very g rateful for the dedication and hard work of the

research assistants who helped me with t his edition: Cameron Draper-

the careful and meticulous work of my main ed itor at Irwin Law, Alisa

Debenham, Jeremy Farr, Marc LeBla nc, Jeffrey MacIntosh, Douglas Scott,

were kind enough to review chapters for the f‌irst, second, and t hird

editions; and my research a ssistants who worked on the f‌irst three edi-

tions: Adam Barker, Goldie Bassi, Stephen Hug, Michael McGraw, Arend

Wakeford, and Jaqueline Yost. Any errors, of course, remain my sole

respon sibilit y.

I gratefully acknowledge the support of the Common Law Section
