Landmark Cases in the Law of Contract offers twelve original essays
by leading contract scholars. As with the essays in the companion
volumes in this series, each essay takes as its focus a particular
leading case, and analyses that case in its historical or
theoretical context. The cases range from the early eighteenth- to
the late twentieth-centuries, and deal with an array of contractual
doctrines. Some of the essays call for their case to be stripped of
its landmark status, whilst others argue that it has more to offer
than we have previously appreciated. The particular historical
context of these landmark cases, as revealed by the authors, often
shows that our current assumptions about the case and what it
stands for are either mistaken, or require radical modification.
The book also explores several common themes which are fundamental
to the development of the law of contract: for instance, the
influence of commercial expectations, appeals to 'reason' and the
significance of particular judicial ideologies and techniques.
