This textbook contains unique features including reflection prompts, case highlights, and ''applying what you learned'' exercises to reinforce learning and help students gain essential transactional skills. Law professor and contracts expert Nancy Kim focuses on litigation prevention with a problem-solving approach. She offers helpful tips to avoid potential pitfalls in drafting contracts and provides explanations for common contract clauses and their meanings.

Industry Reviews
'Professor Kim's book is ideal for anyone interested in improving their contract negotiation skills. Through its blend of contract doctrine, case summaries, sample clauses and questions designed to encourage reflection, the book provides an ideal blend of contract theory and practice. The caveats on "greedy drafting" that are sprinkled throughout the book are unique and useful. These cautionary scenarios serve as a reminder that successful drafting of contract clauses requires consideration of both legal and ethical principles.' --George Siedel, University of Michigan
'Professor Nancy Kim has continued her writing on modern contract law with this excellent introduction to contracts and contract clauses, aimed at both law students and middle managers who must deal with contracts despite their lack of formal legal training. Kim explains clearly and gives both good and bad examples of contract writing from the real world.' --Peter Linzer, University of Houston
