Treitel on the Law of Contract is recognised as the most thorough and discerning treatment of contract law. It is a widely adopted textbook for students and a valuable source of reference for practitioners. This new edition provides a clear and detailed analysis of an increasingly complex area of law. Examines, and offers resolutions to, controversial and problematic points of law. Takes account of a number of cases in the Supreme Court including Pakistan International Airline Corporation v Times Travel (UK) Ltd (duress), Barton v Morris (implied terms, restitution), Triple Point Technology Inc v PTT Public Co Ltd (limitation of liability), Guest v Guest (proprietary estoppel). Also covers important developments in the Court of Appeal including King Crude Carriers SA v Ridgebury November LLC (doctrine of fictional fulfilment), Quantum Actuarial LLP v Quantum Advisory Ltd (restraint of trade), SK Shipping Europe Plc v Capital VLCC 3 Corp (misrepresentation). Anticipates the coming into force of the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024. Treitel remains the most coherent, comprehensive and compelling analysis of contract law on the market. - Publisher's website.
