An excellent and comprehensive review of the law of contract,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Law of Contract (Paperback)
The new edition of Koffman and MacDonald's text is ideal for all undergraduate students studying the law of contract. The text provides concise yet comprehesive coverage of all core areas of the subject. Koffman and MacDonald's style of writing is easily accessible to all students. The authors make insightful comments into developing areas of the law and potential areas for reform. Analysis of case law and statute is lucid, explaining the more problematic areas of the law. The text is up to date including: the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations 1999, AG v Blake (2000), and the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999. The text is more simplistic than many other books on the market. However this will be greatly appreciated by many readers. A higly recommended text.

Great text,

This review is from: Law of Contract (Paperback)
One of the authors, Laurence Koffman, is one of the contract law lecturers at my university. So, naturally, this was the textbook recommended to us. At first I bought a different text, which I found hard to follow, so I got this book instead. It is easy to read but has all the detail you would need for this subject at undergraduate level. It is especially useful for students at Sussex university as the textbook and the lectures are virtually the same. I think it would also be very useful for those at other universitys and this book helped me get a high grade in the subject.
