Since the second edition was published some important decisions have been reported on estoppel and these have been considered in this new edition. Comparing the multitude of references to estoppel in South African case law to the number of reported decisions where the courts actually founded estoppel confirms that successful reliance on estoppel remains more the exception than the rule.

Benefits

The original work by Rabie (on which this book is based) has been acknowledged by the South African courts as the standard work on estoppel in South African law and the author has examined English and South African law of estoppel.
