- This monograph – the first sustained, full-length account of unjust enrichment’s moral foundations – was the author’s main research topic for over six years, though it is based on study over an even longer period. It is the first of its kind, seeking to establish a new field of inquiry rather than merely adding to existing debates. The research needed for the book was of much broader scope than most law monographs, extending beyond the voluminous legal literature on unjust enrichment to engage with issues in general jurisprudence and moral philosophy.
