Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. Contract law decides which promises a court will enforce and which ones it will ignore. This book explains where that line sits, in plain English, and then walks you through every rule built on top of it. The nine chapters follow the path a real dispute takes, from the first offer through formation, performance, breach, and the money a judge awards at the end. American doctrine is handled together in one place: the common law, the Uniform Commercial Code, and the Restatement (Second) of Contracts, with a note on which one governs a given deal. Each chapter builds on the one before it, so the doctrines connect instead of landing as a pile of separate rules to memorize. Nine chapters, in the order a dispute unfolds: - Offer, acceptance, and the objective theory of assent, including the mailbox rule and the battle of the forms under UCC 2-207 - Consideration, illusory promises, past consideration, and the preexisting duty rule - Promissory estoppel, and when reliance alone makes a promise stick without a bargain behind it - The defenses that undo an agreement that looked valid: minority, duress, undue influence, fraud in the inducement, mutual mistake, and bargains struck down on public policy grounds - The Statute of Frauds, plus how E-SIGN and UETA treat email, text messages, and electronic signatures - Reading the terms: parol evidence, implied warranties of merchantability and fitness, unconscionability in adhesion contracts, and the duty of good faith - Conditions precedent and subsequent, substantial performance, perfect tender, impossibility, impracticability, and frustration of purpose - Material breach, anticipatory repudiation, cover, and buyer and seller remedies under Article 2 - Damages measured by expectation, reliance, or restitution, with Hadley v. Baxendale on foreseeability, plus specific performance, liquidated damages, and the penalty clauses courts refuse to enforce Four sections after the main text make the material stick: a timeline running from the Roman stipulatio through the medieval writ system to modern statutes, worked answers to the discussion question closing each chapter, a glossary defining more than eighty terms in a line each, and a reading list pointing to Farnsworth, Fried, and Gilmore. Written for readers with no legal training: - Law students starting their first contracts course - Paralegals and pre-law readers who want the doctrine in order - Business owners and freelancers who sign agreements they did not draft - Anyone who wants to read an agreement without a lawyer translating it Finish the book and you can look at a signed agreement and see what it actually does. You will know where it might fail, what your options are when the other side stops performing, and which clauses shift risk onto you before any dispute begins. Indemnification, force majeure, choice of law, arbitration, and limitation of liability stop being boilerplate you scroll past. This item is printed on demand.
