Contract Law: Text, Cases, and Materials

by Ewan McKendrick

Overview

A complete guide to contract law in a single volume: author commentary, carefully chosen cases, and extracts from academic materials complement each other to give students all they need for their undergraduate study of the subject.

Comprising a unique balance of 40% text to 60% cases and materials, Contract Law: Text, Cases, and Materials combines the best features of a textbook with those of a traditional casebook.

The book is accompanied by an Online Resource Centre which includes:
- Extra material with in-depth coverage of topics such as illegality and incapacity
- Updates on recent developments in the law
- Annotated web links to key sources of information on contract law
- Self-test multiple choice questions and answers
