“The book provides a clear and understandable account of complex theoretical literature, while retaining focus upon the application of these theoretical ideas … . this book provides an excellent distillation of the role that ‘relational vulnerability’ could play in the legal regulation of adult personal relationships, offering some interesting potential solutions for the future. … book is a strong addition to the literature on the legal understanding of adult personal relationships and on the relationship between law and vulnerability theory.” (Alan Brown, International Journal of Law, Policy and the Family, December 11, 2021)
