Interpretation or construction is central to the operation of
contract law. Despite the fundamental role it plays, there have
been limited attempts to explain construction in holistic terms.
This important book aims to fill that gap by offering a systematic
exposition of the iterative process. It also goes further,
suggesting practical solutions to disputes regarding questions of
interpretation. The book argues that construction is not simply
about establishing what words mean; it is a process through which
objective intention is inferred from the choice of words in a
contract. The interpretive process involves four steps: formulate
the question of interpretation in dispute; explore competing
answers to the question; analyse the admissible material supporting
each interpretation; and weigh and balance the competing
considerations. By so doing, the book offers a simple yet
sophisticated framework for interpreting/constructing contracts.
