Book Synopsis A History of the Anglo-American Common Law of Contract by : Kevin M. Teeven
Book excerpt: This first booklength survey of the 800-year evolution of Anglo-American common law contract begins in 12th-century England and extends to contemporary America, focusing on how procedural, economic, intellectual, and social considerations tempered the form of contract law and analyzing the thought of lawyers and judges throughout the period. Covers Plantagenet royal courts in England to contract law in the context of American urban, industrialized society; reviews public policy, consumerism, and codification; and poses questions about the future direction of contract law.
