Offering a guide to the fundamentals of contract law, this book also shows how the law has developed through the cases over many years. The book provides students with extracts from cases and statutes in all the main areas of the subject, supplemented with notes and discussion by the author. Divided into 21 chapters, reflecting main areas of law, there are over 100 cases cited throughout the book. The text aims to be up-to-date, taking account of all recent developments in the subject, and would be suitable both for law students and students taking law as part of a non-law course.
