Rezensionen / Stimmen
Review from previous edition Ansons Law of Contract, under the stewardship of Jack Beatson, remains one of the finest expositions of English contract law available... Anson is the first textbook I would recommend to students of contract law. It is simply of a higher quality than any other text... for a clear, readable and authoritative exposition of the general principles of contract law, it is impressive indeed. Lloyd's Maritime and Commercial Law Quarterly This book speaks for itself as one of the indispensable classic text books on English Contract law. Dr. Reid, Univ. of Edinburgh
