Professor Brian A. Blum, highly regarded for both his strong writing ability and his skill in teaching first-year students, offers a clear, readable text to help the beginner master the difficult concepts and vocabulary of Contracts.
Carefully designed to facilitate effective study, Contracts: Examples and Explanations takes the practical three-step approach that characterizes this effective Series:
Thorough descriptions explore and explain the concepts under consideration.
Examples give students an opportunity to test their comprehension by applying the law to contemporary fact patterns.
Explanations help them measure their mastery of the material and provide suggested answers and feedback.
Throughout the book, useful diagrams give students visual representations of important concepts to strengthen the textual explanations. Professor Blum structures his book in a series of self-contained chapters on:

Promissory Estoppel;
Restitution;
Offer and Acceptance;
Interpretation and Construction;
The Statute of Frauds and the Parole Evidence Rule;
Judicial Regulation of Improper Bargaining and of Violation of Law and Public Policy;
