"The attempt to describe and analyze so vast a subject matter in one volume has obvious dangers. Over-simplifications are inevitable. Generalizations tend to be more dogmatic than the law in action. Nevertheless, the practitioner is aware and the student soon becomes aware of the uses and limitations of introductory texts. A text of this kind seeks to provide a guide to a deeper knowledge of the subject". -- PREFACE.

This book provides a counter-balance to the traditional focus on judicial decisions by exploring the contribution of legal scholars to the development of private law. In the book the work of a selection of leading scholars of contract law from across the common law world, ranging from Sir Jeffrey Gilbert (1674–1726) to Professor Brian Coote (1929–2019), is addressed by legal historians and current scholars in the field. The focus is on the nature of the work produced by the scholars in question, important influences on their work, and the impact which that work in turn had on thinking about contract law. The book also includes an introductory chapter and an afterword by Professor William Twining that explore connections between the scholars and recurrent themes. The process of subjecting contract law scholarship to sustained analysis provides new insights into the intellectual development of contract law and reveals the central role played by scholars in that process. And by focusing attention on the work of influential contract scholars, the book serves to emphasise the importance of legal scholarship to the development of the common law more generally.

Bring the expertise of America's foremost authority on contracts into your practice with this thoroughly updated three-volume set. Farnsworth on Contracts, Second Edition, is where doctrine meets practice. Busy practitioners count on Famsworth's proven ability to identify the essentials and omit extraneous material. His comprehensive coverage of the full range of contract law answers questions in hundreds of important areas, including: Good faith and fair dealing -- Precontractual liability -- Agreements to negotiate -- Vienna Convention on International Sales -- Contracts -- UNIDROIT principles -- Constitutional issues -- Settlement of disputed claims by check -- Options and rights of first refusal -- Employee handbooks -- Covenants not to compete -- Self-help measures. He illustrates how contemporary contract law has been shaped by both the Restatement (Second) of Contracts for -- which he served as Reporter -- and the Uniform Commercial Code. Easy access to specifics, new cases, new drafting tips, new references, and timesaving features like cross-referenced cases and marginal heads make this three-volume set a valuable resource for litigation, arbitration, and practice. Farnsworth on Contracts was always the most authoritative contracts treatise -- in its Second Edition, it is also the most up-to-date.
