"The Law of Contract provides an accessible overview of the fundamentals of contract
law and its underlying rationales. It also introduces and explores the main academic
debates within the subject, encouraging students to decide for themselves whether
the rules that contract law adopts are justifiable and, if not, how they should be
altered. To help students to develop the skills necessary to apply the principles
of contract law to new situations, The Law of Contract breaks down legal problems
into different and manageable steps. This book covers all of the core areas studied
on an undergraduate course and incorporates chapter summaries and self-test questions
to reinforce students' learning and aid revision, as well as further reading sections
to provide a platform for further study. Online Resource Center Updates Web links"--
