A comprehensive, well-written book, containing an intelligent selection of extracts from significant cases and legislation, as well as thought-provoking secondary literature. The accompanying discussion is illuminating. * Dr Grant Stirling, Lecturer in Law, University of Hull *
An excellent text and materials introduction to contract law. It clearly and comprehensively explains the law with insightful comments and discussion. It is unequalled as a first point of reference and should be on every student's desk. * Dr Bruce Wardhaugh, Senior Lecturer in Law, University of Manchester *
