Reviews for O'Sullivan & Hilliard's The Law of Contract

Helpful, reliable and well-written. It explains complex issues clearly and is concise and focused, but also provides a good amount of additional detail. * Joanna McCunn, University of Bristol * I firmly believe that O'Sullivan & Hilliard's The Law of Contract is better than many other contract law text books. * Dr Kaushik Paul, Durham University * Up-to-date and helpful account of case law as a key source of contract law. * Jeremmy Okonjo, University of Warwick *
