With the appearance of the Eleventh Edition, this book is now well
into its sixth decade. Throughout its long history, this casebook
has relied on classic cases to capture the fundamental principles
of contract law. This new edition preserves and builds upon the
book's distinctive character, especially its use of canonical cases
and its sensitivity to the history. The newly added cases show how
the basic principles of contract law continue to evolve, even in
such well-explored areas as promissory estoppel and restitution. As
before, this edition eschews any distinctive take on the law of
contracts and thus allows each teacher using the book a broad range
of choice on what to bring in to channel or expand classroom
discussion. The most visible alteration in this edition is a new
focus on the bargaining environment in which contracts are formed
and how legal rules shape it. A significant amount of new material
has been added, but the length of the book remains about the same.
CasebookPlus Hardbound - New, hardbound print book includes
lifetime digital access to an eBook, with the ability to highlight
and take notes, and 12-month access to a digital Learning Library
that includes self-assessment quizzes tied to this book, leading
study aids, an outline starter, and Gilbert Law Dictionary.
