The doctrines that collectively comprise the law of contract ostensibly regulate much of the daily lives of citizens, form part of the compulsory diet fed to aspiring aspiring lawyers and the concept of a contract is utilized in moral and philosophy. These essays seek to explore the boundaries of contract law, and do so in diverse ways. They explore the issues of general theory, empirical studies, European influences, proposed reforms of the law and the impact of particular contractual doctrines on other bodies of domestic law.

In a text that originally formed the opening chapter to Butterworths Common Law Series--The Law of Contract, Roger Brownsword explores the key themes of contract law as it enters the twenty-first century. The positive critical response to his in-depth discussion of a number of issues, including the range of classical and modern influences over the current law, has led to this publication of the chapter as a book.
