  Ewan McKendrick has updated his popular textbook which explores the underlying themes and explains the basic rules of English contract law. He introduces the current debates about the nature, scope and functions of this law and discusses some of the wider controversies which surround certain basic doctrines such as consideration and privity. This new edition has been expanded to incorporate the enactment of the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations 1994, the publication of the Law Commission's report on the reform of the doctrine of privity of contract and a number of decisions of the House of Lords.
