Industry Reviews
A popular and well-liked textbook. Very fluent and well written, with clear explanations and attention to academic debate within contract law. Always highlights grey areas of the law which are ripe for reform/challenge. * Ruby Hammer, Senior Lecturer, University of Manchester *
The book is clear and accessible, with consistent structure throughout and good use of key points at the start of each chapter to guide student learning. * Aislinn O'Connell, Lecturer in Law, Royal Holloway University *
The writing style is great and easily readable. It doesn't overcomplicate the content of contract law and it doesn't oversimplify it, giving it the perfect balance. * student, Oxford Brookes University *
An excellent staple text for undergraduate students. It is sufficiently detailed and deals with all key issues in contract law. The commentary surrounding more controversial areas of law is great. The introductory chapter is brilliant. It excellently discusses key concepts of contract law and places it all in context to set up the rest of book. * Michael Lane, Visiting Lecturer; Birmingham City University *
A comprehensive and accessible text which deals with the fundamental key principles. * Stephen Bunbury, Senior Lecturer, University of Westminster *
