Industry Reviews

'In Advanced Introduction to Contract Law and Theory, Brian Bix has accomplished the rare feat of providing an introduction to both contract doctrine and the normative debates that swirl around that law that speaks to both students and scholars in the field. He manages to clearly explain both the complexities of the law and the difficult theoretical debates that contract doctrine has sparked in ways that will engage beginners and challenge experts in the field.' -- Nathan B. Oman, College of William & Mary, US
'Doctrine, legal philosophy and law-in-action: to understand contracts, we need all three of these bodies of knowledge. Moreover, we need a willingness to recognize inconsistencies. Add Brian Bix's talents in each of these areas plus his skill as a writer, and you have a fine book.' -- Stewart Macaulay, University of Wisconsin-Madison, US
