  The Law of Contract considers the fundamental points of contract law in a clear and concise form. It is an introductory book written by the author of Smith and Thomas - A Casebook on Contract (and in fact this book is cross referenced to that). Recent developments covered include: the Law of Property (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1989 and significant cases such as Walford v. Miles and Williams v. Roffey among others; the effects of Atlas Express Ltd v. Kafko Ltd and Williams v. Roffey Bros. on the doctrines of consideration and economic duress; the impact of Norwich City Council v. Harvey on the doctrine of privity of contract; and the approach to the courts in Spiro v. Glencrown Properties and Record v. Bell to problems which the new Law of Property (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1989 creates in contracts for the disposition of an interest in the land.
