Description
Australian Contract Law: Principles and Cases
Australian Contract Law: Principles and Cases Second Edition is a distinctive two-in-one text that concisely sets out general principles of contract law illustrated through key cases. The unique structure of the chapters, beginning with a systematic exposition of principles followed by case extracts with emphasis on salient facts, key issues, and carefully selected excerpts of judgments, aid the study and analysis of contract law.
This second edition includes three new chapters (Specific Performance, Injunctions, and Restitution and Unjust Enrichment) and comprehensively covers the fundamentals of contract law in five parts: Formation of Contract, Terms, Avoidance, Discharge, and Remedies. This fully revised edition incorporates recent legislative changes on unfair contract terms in the Australian Consumer Law and developments in case law including:
- Productivity Partners Pty Ltd (trading as Captain Cook College) v ACCC (2024) on unconscionable conduct;
- Cessnock City Council v 123 259 932 Pty Ltd (2024) on reliance damages;
- Karpik v Carnival Plc (2023) on unfair contract terms;
- Self Care IP Holdings Pty Ltd v Allergan Australia Pty Ltd (2023) on misleading or deceptive conduct; and
- Laundy Hotels (Quarry) Pty Ltd v Dyco Hotels Pty Ltd (2023) on frustration and COVID-19.
Features of the second edition:
- New sections on smart contracts and blockchain technology, assignment of contractual rights, and consumer guarantees.
- Extensive topical references to journal articles for further reading.
- Each chapter provides two sets of questions: Discussion Questions for deeper learning (completely reformulated from the first edition) and Problem-Based Questions for solving hypothetical contract disputes (with an additional question per chapter).
- Five guides (four new to this edition) covering essential skills: reading cases, reading statutes, answering problem-based questions, answering research questions, and writing opinions.
- A Sample Sale of Goods Contract is also included.
