The fifth edition of Contract Law offers an in-depth examination of Australian contract law, its principles and contemporary issues, the common terminology and the role of the courts, as well as its historical development. Complex topics are illustrated by clear and informative cases, and are supported by Case Example boxes with summaries about the judgment, allowing students to see how the judgments set or support precedents and principles.
This text is also available with the Contract Law Casebook 3rd edition which gives students access to an expanded selection of primary and secondary materials.
