Significantly streamlined and updated, the second edition of Andrews' Contract Law now provides a clear and succinct examination of all of the topics in the contract law curriculum. Chapters direct students to the most important decisions in case law and employ a two-level structure to integrate short judicial excerpts into detailed discussion and analysis. Exploration of the law's 'loose ends' strengthens students' ability to effectively analyse case law, and new end-of-chapter questions, which focus on both core aspects of the law and interesting legal loopholes, assist students in preparing for exams. Students are guided through chapter material by concise chapter overviews and a two-colour text design that highlights important chapter elements. Suggestions for further reading and a rich bibliography, which point readers to important pieces of contemporary literature and provide a springboard for deeper investigation of particular topics, lend further support for student learning.

'This book endeavours to rise above the increasing volume and complexity of this important subject by introducing readers to its general themes, principles and rules, with an awareness of international influences on its modern development. It combines a distillation of its core elements with careful and thorough guidance to enhance understanding, so as to enable students to learn to find their way through the thicket of modern contract law and practices.' Francis Rose, University of Southampton
