Description

Cases, Problems, and Materials on Contracts, Fifth Edition, is distinguished by its excellent organization and straightforward approach. This case-and problem-oriented casebook provides unparalleled flexibility: Its length makes it suitable for use in courses of varying course hours, and its adaptable organization accommodates different teaching requirements, styles, and approaches.

Students and professors alike appreciate all the aspects of this book that make it such an excellent means for studying Contracts:

  • thorough coverage of basic themes of contract law contained in a manageable length
  • accessible, well-organized, straightforward text beginning with clear introductions to each section and concept
  • problem-oriented approach using short, well-conceived hypotheticals
  • popular and flexible organization that starts with offer and acceptance and moves to consideration; however, the authors have designed the book so that the course can easily be taught starting with consideration or remedies
  • tight case editing that allows students to more easily grasp the pertinent concepts

Enhancements to the Fifth Edition include:

  • in-depth discussion of adhesion contracts versus negotiated contracts
  • all Article 1 citations have been updated to the newest version of Article 1
  • extensive revision of notes concerning the "battle of the forms" issue in Chapter 1, Intent to Contract: Offer and Acceptance
  • Chapter 2, Consideration, and Chapter 7, Conditions and Promises: Performance and Breach, have been condensed, and more problems on the express condition have been added to Chapter 7
  • problems have been added and refreshed throughout the text
  • problems, notes, and the selection and order of cases have been revised in Chapter 5, The Parole Evidence Rule and Interpretation of the Contract

The flexible, problem-oriented organization of Cases, Problems, and Materials on Contracts, Fifth Edition, as well as its careful selection and editing of cases, make this casebook a highly effective teaching tool.
