Keating (law, Washington University) takes a systems perspective, focusing on the institutions and mechanisms that market participants use to conduct their transactions, in this text for a course in sales law. Material is organized into 28 assignments for use in class sessions devoted exclusively to problem-solving rather than lecture or analysis of cases. Assignments include cases from the mid-1990s or later, provisions from actual sales documents and forms, excerpts from interviews with buyers and sellers, and newspaper stories illustrating how the sales systems affects people in the real world. Coverage encompasses the domestic and international sale of goods, leases, and real estate. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
