DOWNLOAD EBOOKAn authoritative account of the German law of obligations after the reform legislation of 2002 and a critical assessment of the new law in historical and comparative perspective. The analysis covers the new regime concerning liability for general non-performance, non-conformity in sales law, the incorporation of a number of special statutes aimed at the protection of consumers, and examines how the reform has moved German contract law considerably closer to European thinking patterns.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKRecently the contract section of the German Civil Code was amended after one hundred years of un-altered existence. The German Law of Contract, radically recast, enlarged, and re-written since its first edition, now details and explains for the first time these changes for the benefit of Anglophone lawyers. One hundred and twenty translated contract decisions also make this work a unique source-book for students, academics, and practitioners. Along with its companion volume, The German Law of Torts, the two volumes provide one of the fullest accounts of the German Law of Obligations available in the English language. Through its method of presentation of German law, the book represents an original contribution to the art of comparison. An additional feature of the Contract volume is the way in which it reveals the growing impact which European Directives are having upon the traditional, liberal, contract model, thereby bringing German and English law closer to each other, especially in the area of consumer protection.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIt is a matter of some difficulty for the English lawyer to predict the effect of a misapprehension upon the formation of a contract. The common law doctrine of mistake is a confused one, with contradictory theoretical underpinnings and seemingly irreconcilable cases. This book explains the common law doctrine through an examination of the historical development of the doctrine in English law. Beginning with an overview of contractual mistakes in Roman law, the book examines how theories of mistake were received at various points into English contract law from Roman and civil law sources. These transplants, made for pragmatic rather than principled reasons, combined in an uneasy manner with the pre-existing English contract law. The book also examines the substantive changes brought about in contractual mistake by the Judicature Act 1873 and the fusion of law and equity. Through its historical examination of mistake in contract law, the book provides not only insights into the nature of innovation and continuity within the common law but also the fate of legal transplants.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWith its companion volume, The Law of Torts, this two-volume work provides a full scale treatise on the German Law of Obligations (Contract, Restitution and Tort) written in a comparative way and with a Common Law reader in mind. A commentary, which amounts to about half of the book, is accompanied by some 250 translations of leading German cases. This should prove a useful work for students and academics with an interest in German and Comparative law.
