Download or read book Foundational Principles of Contract Law written by Melvin A. Eisenberg and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-09-20 with total page 905 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foundational Principles of Contract Law not only sets out the principles and rules of contract law, it places more emphasis on what the principles and rules of contract law should be, based on policy, morality, and experience. A major premise of the book is that the best way to grasp contract law is to understand it from a critical perspective as an organic, dynamic subject. When contract law is approached in this way it is much easier to grasp and learn than when it is presented simply as a static collection of principles and rules. Professor Eisenberg covers almost all areas of contract law, including the enforceability of promises, remedies for breach of contract, problems of assent, form contracts, the effect of mistake and changed circumstances, interpretation, and problems of performance. Although the emphasis of the book is on the principles and rules of contract law, it also covers important theories in contract law, such as the theory of efficient breach, the theory of overreliance, the normative theory of contracts, formalism, and theories of contract interpretation.

Download or read book Principles of Contract Law written by Kevin S. Marshall and published by Vandeplas Pub. This book was released on 2012-06-01 with total page 828 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The law of contracts permeates most, if not all, other subjects of legal education. Principles of Contract Law surveys the fundamental legal principles underlying the law of contracts, addressing such customary topics as contract formation, defenses and other doctrines of avoidance, breach and performance, remedies, as well as such other collateral but related topics involving third-party beneficiaries, assignments and delegations.

Book excerpt: With the appearance of the Tenth Edition, this book enters its sixth decade. Throughout its long history, this casebook has relied on classic cases to capture the fundamental principles of contract law, and this edition reinforces that tradition. This new edition preserves and builds upon the book's distinctive character, especially its use of canonical cases, its sensitivity to the history and evolution of doctrine, and its close attention to the legal consequences of breach. The newly added cases show how the basic principles of contract law continue to apply across a wide range of transactions. 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 an expanded treatment of the important problem of contract interpretation A significant amount of new material has been added, but the length of the book remains about the same. This edition both covers recent developments and maintains a manageable length
