5 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This work began to take shape as I taught Contracts at the University of Montana School of Law. Dean John O. Mudd gave particularly strong encouragement to curriculum development that emphasized application as well as doctrine. In the summer of 1984, I was assisted by a grant from the National Institute for Dispute Resolution, which recognized the preventive law value of good drafting. Other than these two, specific acknowledgments seem out of place, for to list is to limit. I would have to acknowledge not only those individuals who helped directly with the work, but those who have helped me to see a need and to fill it. I am grateful to them, the many teachers and students I have profited from as a law student, practitioner, and professor.
