N2  - "This textbook takes a fresh approach to contract law; as a fi rst edition it refl ects the subject in the 21st century more accurately than other texts. Comprehensive and scholarly, it maps the curriculum perfectly but detailed references and further reading sections encourage students to explore the subject further. Understanding is paramount and chapter introductions clearly guide students through the material. The textbook takes an innovative approach to case law: breaking down and discussing individual elements of a case and selecting short key extracts, it gives students the tools to read cases independently and with confi dence. An examination of the historical and theoretical foundations of the subject and a concluding chapter tracking emerging fi elds ensure the broadest possible perspective. Discussion of key recent cases such as Durham Tees Valley Airport (2010) and Chartbrook (2009) make this important new text a must for contract law students"--
