Reviews

Complex legal concepts are broken down, step-by-step, and applied regularly to real-world scenarios, enabling them to be easily understood and appreciated by students of any level. * Michael Lane, Visiting Lecturer; PhD Student, Birmingham City University * A unique, comprehensive and well-thought out textbook, with student learning in mind, written by a dedicated expert in the field. * Dr Sarah Morley, Lecturer, Newcastle University * This book is compulsively readable, well-explained, and excellent for students interested in the application of contract law to the real world. * Monica Chen, Student 2015-2018, University College London * A refreshingly innovative approach; it introduces genuinely life-like scenarios which capture the reader's attention and then unpacks and applies the relevant law in a way that enables a student to simultaneously develop both substantive subject knowledge and key legal skills. * Alex Nicholson, Principles Lecturer and Deputy Head of Law, Sheffield Hallam University * A good read, with the perfect level of depth on the subject; I wish I had had this textbook when studying contract! * Kiran Arif, Student, University of Hertfordshire *
