Publisher's Synopsis
The casebook was designed for four-hour, one-semester courses. It includes introductions that quickly orient students within unfamiliar territories. Cases present both the doctrine applied and, in some instances, the shortcomings of that doctrine. The authors express their disagreement about basic issues, so that students can experience the range of possible views in modern contract law. Contemporary subjects, such as form contracts, the modern concept of unconscionability, the rise of arbitration, and the increasing importance of computers in commercial transactions, are given considerable emphasis.
