Book Description
Contracts: Cases and Doctrine features a mix of lightly-edited classic and contemporary cases that stress current contract doctrine along with the essential lawyering skill of case analysis—how to sift through the facts of the case to discern the prevailing rules and theory. Randy Barnett and Nate Oman’s innovative text introduces each case and provides the historical background of the iconic cases that make the study of contract law engaging. Study Guide questions help students identify salient issues as they read each case. Judicial biographies of each judge provide additional context. The 8th Edition has been streamlined and edited to delete materials that are rarely covered in a 1L class. This edition includes new cases that have been chosen for their topicality, facts, or pedagogical usefulness. Areas covered include so-called “smart contracts” and the relationship between restitution and contract. As always, the authors focus on cases with facts that will be easier to teach. New cases in this edition include litigation between Ukraine and Russia over Russia’s invasion of its neighbor, a plea bargaining deal gone wrong, what happens when an employee signs a boilerplate arbitration contract “No Rejected,” and a dispute over whether spiders are insects. New to the 8th Edition: In order to keep the size of the book manageable, the authors have simplified its structure by condensing some of the more theoretical material on enforceability. The chapters on Principles of Enforceability and Intention to be Legally Bound have been deleted entirely, and highly truncated portions of the materials from these chapters have been added to the chapters on The Doctrine of Consideration and The Doctrine of Promissory Estoppel. New cases include: • In re IBP Inc. Shareholders Litigation (specific performance of a merger agreement involving personal services) • Bjorkman v. Arctic Cat, Inc. (modern application of the rule in Dickinson v. Dodds) • Ragland v. IEC US Holdings, Inc. (a new employee signed a boilerplate arbitration contract “No Rejected”) • Rios v. State of Maryland (confused bargaining over a plea bargaining agreement) • Robinson v. Liberty Mutual Insurance Co. (What is a spider? An example of neo-textualist interpretation) • Law Debenture Trust Corp. Plc. v. Ukraine (litigation between two countries – Russia and Ukraine – in the courts of a third country, England) • Martinez-Gonzalez v. Elkhorn Packing Co. LLC (duress in an employment contract involving a migrant worker) Professors and student will benefit from: • Case-based approach gives students ample doctrinal materials to sift through for facts and analyze for prevailing rules and theory. • Cases are lightly edited, or presented as whole as possible, to give first-year students the opportunity to develop case-analysis skills. • Restatement and UCC sections are integrated to encourage students to consult them as they read the cases. • Iconic and contemporary cases are combined to show how the classic cases are still relevant. • Each chapter begins with a brief, accessible textual introduction. • Study Guide questions before each case help focus student attention on salient issues. • Flexible organization begins with Remedies, but chapters can be taught in any order.

Connected eBooks provide what you need most to be successful in your law school classes. Contracts in Context: From Transaction to Litigation, covers contract law from a transactional perspective, including: A contract's structure and terms, Contract formation legal requirements, andThe negotiation, drafting, and performance of contracts, as well as the litigation of contracts, including a review of a contract's interpretation, enforcement, and remedies. Contracts in Context: From Transaction to Litigation explores why parties enter into contracts, how written contracts are customarily structured, and how and why parties use contract design and terms to achieve their goals. The book is unique because it introduces students to customary contract provisions, and walks students through the lifecycle of a contract, including (i) pre-formation activities such as due diligence, preliminary negotiations, and contract drafting, (ii) contract formation, performance, and amendment, and (iii) dispute activities, such as interpretation, enforcement, defenses, and remedies. The book explores how parties "contract around" default requirements of the law, in addition to satisfying mandatory aspects of the law, through contracts. The book describes the role of both the transactional lawyer and litigator in working with contracts. It presents much of the material in expository fashion rather than only or primarily through cases. This allows students to learn the doctrine more easily. It also allows for more time on applying the law to new situations. The book challenges students to apply contract law through transactional and litigation practice and simulation problems, which are adaptable to the classroom and asynchronous setting. New to the Second Edition: Additional materials covering the professional identities of attorneys, in addition to their professional responsibilities. Revised practice problems for students to apply the contract law doctrine and private ordering principles they have learned. Expanded discussion of the role of contracts and contract law in widening and correcting power imbalances. Several new cases to enhance the learning experience. Professors and students will benefit from: Material presented on contract design and terms so that students understand how contracts are used in practice by businesspersons and how contract law supports this private ordering. Many examples of contract language to demonstrate why and how parties customize contracts to further their goals. Discussion of the role of the transactional lawyer in working with contracts so that students can begin to develop important transactional skills and wrestle with some of the professional dilemmas transactional lawyers frequently face. Explanations of contract law and other material presented through expository text to give students a more comprehensive and clearer view of what limits the law imposes on their private ordering through contracts and which requirements can be contracted around. A large set of problems, many of which involve tasks assigned to new transactional lawyers and litigators, to allow students to learn the material through active participation and critical thinking.

Book Description
A casebook to be used as the primary text for first-year law school contracts courses, written by a leading scholar in contract law. Renting a home, buying a ticket, downloading an app—humans enter into contracts constantly, often with little consciousness of the legal implications. We typically become alert to the consequences only when a problem arises. Contracting can increase our happiness by enabling us to do things that we would be otherwise unable to do, but heartbreak follows when things go wrong. This casebook, which can be used as a primary text for a first-year law school contracts course, covers a wide spectrum of quandaries that emerge in contract law, from problems of overreach and interpretation to enforcement and fraud. Taken together, these cases offer an exploration of contract pathology and introduce students to concepts that are essential to understanding the vast subject of Anglo-American contract law. This book is part of the Open Casebook series from Harvard Law School Library and the MIT Press. Primary text for a first-year law school contracts course Developed for use at Harvard Law School by a leading scholar in contract law Diverse cases show differing approaches to a range of problems within contracting Classroom tested
