The fourth edition of this acclaimed textbook addresses the
developments in English contract law since the last edition,
including the impact of the withdrawal of the UK from the European
Union, and new case law on the role of good faith, the doctrine of
consideration, rectification of written contracts for mistake,
economic duress, illegality, contractual interpretation, and
damages for breach of contract. The book introduces the lawyer
trained in a civil law jurisdiction to the method of reasoning in
the common law, and in particular to the English law of contract.
It is written for the lawyer - whether student or practitioner -
from another jurisdiction who already has an understanding of a
(different) law of contract, but who wishes to discover the way in
which an English lawyer views a contract. However, it is also
useful for the English law student: setting English contract law
generally in the context of other European and international
approaches, the book forms an introductory text, not only
demonstrating how English contract law works but also giving a
glimpse of different ways of thinking about some of the fundamental
rules of contract law from a civil law perspective. After a general
introduction to the common law system - how a common lawyer reasons
and finds the law - the book explains the principles of the law of
contract in English law covering all the aspects of a contract from
its formation to the remedies available for breach, whilst
directing attention in particular to those areas where the approach
of English law is in marked contrast to that taken in many civil
law systems.
