Principles of Contract Law

This overview of contract law explains concepts clearly and concisely, in an informal, humorous style. For ease of reading and understanding, the book refrains from including complex textual footnotes. Instead, the footnotes cite cases, with most including short quotations to substantiate assertions made in the text. The book also contains numerous examples and illustrations. Cross references enable readers to review concepts that constitute building blocks for the current material. The second edition builds on the very successful first edition. It revises several sections in part to keep up with how changes in technology have influenced contract law. The second edition also includes new references to recent decisions that treat the core concepts.
