'Collecting contributions from highly recognised scholars from a variety of continents and legal traditions, this book draws on the dynamics of today's society, where the traditional distinctions among legal systems and among disciplines are getting blurred, and gives novel insight into the merits or demerits of codifying contract law. The book should be read by anyone engaged in comparative legal research or legal reform and policy-making, as it gives a precious opportunity to reflect on structural questions.' Giuditta Cordero-Moss, University of Oslo, Norway ’The essays in this book consider the reform and codification of Australian contract law from a variety of angles. They include informative and insightful contributions by academics from Europe, Japan, North America, New Zealand as well as Australia. Their publication will help to give impetus and focus to the growing codification debate in Australia and in other common law jurisdictions.’ Fred Ellinghaus, University of Melbourne, Australia and Ted Wright, University of Newcastle, Australia
