20% discount available to CLA members: The Construction of Commercial Contracts by JW Carter

This book adopts a principled approach to the law applied in the construction of commercial contracts. This approach is presented as part of a coherent theory of the law of contract construction which makes a unique contribution to scholarship and understanding of the most important aspect of the practice of commercial lawyers. In illustrating construction principles and their application, the exposition of the law draws on Professor Carter's knowledge of Australian contract law and the influence and role of UNIDROIT principles, CISG and the American Restatement (Second) Contracts. To receive a 20% discount please quote reference 'CLAOA' in the special instructions field. The discount will not show on your order confirmation, but will be applied when your order is processed. The discount is only available on orders placed directly with Hart Publishing.
