6 PREFACE TO THE FIFTH EDITION This book has three principal aims. The first is to provide an exposition of the rules that make up the law of contract. To this end it seeks to describe and to analyse the central doctrines of the modern law of contract and to explore the principal controversies associated with these doctrines. It seeks to fulfil this aim through a combination of text, cases, and materials. The function of the text is both to explain and to evaluate the principal rules and doctrines of contract law and to provide a commentary on the leading cases and statutes. The cases chosen for inclusion in the book are the leading cases on the law of contract. The materials consist of statutes, statutory instruments, re-statements of contract law, extracts from textbooks, and academic articles. Secondly, the book aims to explore the law of contract in its transactional context. It is not confined to an analysis of the doctrines that make up the law of contract but extends to the terms that are to be found in modern commercial contracts and the principles that are applied by the courts when seeking to interpret these contracts. The third aim is to explore English contract law in a transnational and comparative perspective. This is not a book on comparative contract law but it does attempt to take account of documents such as the Unidroit Principles of International Commercial Contracts and the Principles of European Contract Law. The book is supported by an Online Resource Centre. The principal purposes of the website will be to provide critical summaries of recent developments in the law and to provide links to helpful websites where further information can be obtained. The website will be updated annually and can be accessed at I would like to thank Esther Kuforiji for a measure of assistance with the proofs of this edition of the book. In preparing the earlier editions I benefited from the assistance of Rachel Kapila, Felicity Maher, Ryan Beckwith, Catherine Button, Jamie Edelman, Emily Elford, Martin Graham, Wenying Li, Vanessa Mak, Danny Priel, Aimée Daruwala, Tim Akkouh, Patricia Edwards, and Sarah Steele. I am grateful to Andrew Burrows for his willingness to allow me in Chapters to draw on material which first appeared in our book (on which we have now been joined by James Edelman), Cases and Materials on the Law of Restitution, also published by Oxford University Press. I am also grateful to the publishers for their assistance and encouragement at every stage. Finally, I would like to thank my wife, Rose, and our children, Jenny, Sarah, Rachel, and Katie for their encouragement and support. My greatest debt is to my wife, Rose, without whose help and support in so many ways, this book would never have been written. This book is dedicated to her with my love and thanks. The law is stated on the basis of the information available to me as at 7 January Ewan McKendrick University Offices Oxford
