Beskrivning

Companion website: www.oup.com/clp1 This new work contains the most current analysis of the English law of contract. Contract Law in Practice enables easy access to the essence of judgements, and includes clear explanations of the law, especially where the law is unsatisfactory, undecided, or lacks certainty. Written by Neil Andrews--an experienced author--his highly valuable book is essential for all commercial lawyers and anyone interested in this fundamental area of the law. Contract Law in Practice Pack includes a digital version available on PC, Mac, Android devices, iPad, or iPhone to ensure that you have access to the latest research on the law of contract wherever you are. With precise links to cases and important passages of the leading judgements, the analysis is founded in the words of the judgments themselves, enabling clear interpretation of their impact on the shape of the law and easy access to judicial discussion. The coverage is comprehensive, and emphasis is made upon interpreting and elucidating difficult or undecided topics. Substantial references to further reading throughout enable easy research for the reader. The author identifies six key principles of contract law: freedom of contract; objectivity; the contractual bond principle; estoppel; good faith and fair dealing; and the compensation principle. These principles support the analytical rigour of Contract Law in Practice and provide the framework in which the author clarifies difficult aspects of the law.

Recensioner i media

The distinctive - indeed to me knowledge unique - feature of this book is that it adopts a different and fresh approach which gives full recognition to the nature and texture of the common law. While the author looks for principles that underpin the case law, he does so at a high level - finding six major organising principles. In discussing topics, he highlights and analyses significant cases, with particular emphasis on cases recently decided. His footnotes refer the reader to the latest academic commentary on controversial points. And in forty-nine places where he finds the law uncertain or in an unsatisfactory state, he provides a critical evaluation of the topic.
