Richard Hyland

[1] In May 2009, Oxford University Press published Gifts: A Study in Comparative Law, Hyland's wide-ranging comparative investigation of the law governing the giving of gifts.

NJW (Neue Juristische Wochenschrift, New Legal Weekly), the leading magazine for legal theory and practice in Germany, selected Gifts as one of eight law books of the year.

In addition to Gifts, Hyland has co-written two textbooks and many articles for scholarly journals.

[1] In addition to his extensive legal education, honors, and experience, Hyland earned a Master of Fine Arts degree in fiction from Columbia University in 2001, has written literary criticism,[4] and is conducting interviews for a book about the turbulent years of Harvard in the late 1960s, when he was an undergraduate.
