This third edition of Contract Law provides a comprehensive review of the principles of contract law. Building on the strengths of previous editions, the text remains interesting, relevant and fresh for today's student. First year students often struggle with the complex topics presented in contract law subjects, but Contract Law 3e explains the principles in a clear and accessible style. The principles are illustrated by succinct and on-point case extracts. The text also includes perspectives from two of Australia's major trading partners - New Zealand and the United States, as well as an examination of international contracts.
