Poole, Jill, Casebook on
Contract Law 8 th ed, Oxford
Univ Press, PB, £26.99,
ISBN: 0199290296
This book provides a
clear and well-structured
explanation of the principles
and rules of contract
law through a comprehensive
selection of
case law, addressing all
aspects encountered on
undergraduate courses.
The coverage in this new
edition has been revised
to incorporate all recent
significant decisions and
judgements made by the
House of Lords and the
Court of Appeal. Extracts
have been chosen from a
wide range of historical
and contemporary cases
to illustrate the reasoning
processes of the court,
why decisions are made,
and how legal principles
are developed, thus enabling
cases to be analysed
and discussed independently
while, taken as a
whole, the chapters provide
a sound understanding
of the modern law of
contract. Succinct author
commentary focuses the
reader on the key elements
within the extracts, while
thought-provoking questions
are posed throughout
to develop more in-depth
analysis.
