Lawyers and students of the law need to have access to a text on contract that will provide them with instant answers to the law applied in the courts. They also need to be aware of the growing international nature of contracts and the huge impact statutory provisions, both from the Oireachtas and the European Union, are having on the regulation of contractual relationships. This book analyses some of the conflicts and controversies surrounding this crucial area, giving an insight as to how the courts might be persuaded to rationalise many of the legal rules that emerged in the 18th century but which do not make sense in today's environment. Some key advantages of the work are: - Clarity and accessibility: it presents a lucid exposition of contract law which is both readily accessible and comprehensive. - Authoritative: each legal point is supported by the highest authority with fully referenced citations.
