Contracts and Sales: Contemporary Cases and Problems, Third Edition, presents the concepts of contract law in contemporary language and in contemporary settings while still including some of the old """"chestnut cases."""" Like the prior edition, the Third Edition of continues to emphasize Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code. It also includes material from the Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. This edition has numerous problems, some shortened, making them easier to cover in class. And, as has been the case with the prior editions, the cases are more heavily edited than in other casebooks. Changes to the Third Edition include: •References to the 2003 proposed amendments to UCC Article 2 have been eliminated. • References to new publications from the American Law Institute that may be influential on courts in upcoming years, namely the Restatement (Third) of Restitution and Unjust Enrichment and the Principles of the Law of Software Contracts, have been added. • New problems focusing on cases that received a fair amount of media attention but which never resulted in officially reported court decisions have been added.

Formerly entitled Contracts and Sales: Cases and Problems, this book's new title reflects a greater emphasis on modern Contract Law. While retaining some of the classic contracts cases, this edition offers many recent ones so that students can learn contract concepts as presented in contemporary language and in contemporary settings. 
The materials reflect the diverse backgrounds and perspectives of the three authors. Professor McGovern is a legal historian who has written extensively in the Estate and Trusts and Property areas. Professors Lawrence and Hull are noted Commercial Law scholars. The result of this collaboration is a well-rounded book that exposes students to the many different elements involved in the analysis of Contract Law. Nevertheless, this casebook is shorter than other Contracts casebooks, in part due to careful editing of the cases that allows teachers and students to focus on the substance more easily. 
The significance of Article 2 on Contracts Law is emphasized throughout. In addition to the revised UCC materials in the new edition, proposed UCC amendments are provided in the supplement. The Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is also discussed to broaden students' perspectives on the law governing commercial transactions.
