Designed for students who may not have ready access to a law library, and for students on part-time and distance learning courses, the Sourcebook series offers a collection of material from a diversity of sources. The sources are annotated to set the materials in context and to explain their relevance and importance. This work offers students and postgraduates of law useful and practical advice on contract law. It presents students with a selection of cases, statutory provisions and academic literature on the general principles of the law of contract. There are also linking passages of text.
