Features: This book selects 48 representative cases from (Anglo-American Contract Law). These cases systematically reflect the main systems of (Anglo-American Contract Law). The editors have arranged them in accordance with the intrinsic logic of (Anglo-American Contract Law), starting from the formation of contracts, to the validity of contracts, then to the interpretation of contracts, and finally to the consequences of non-performance and remedies for breach of contract. To help readers quickly acquire knowledge of (Anglo-American Contract Law) as a foundation, the editors have specifically stated the legal principles covered in each chapter or section at the beginning of the chapter or section in Chinese. Additionally, they have provided thought questions for each English case, enabling readers to read the cases with questions in mind and deepen their understanding of the legal principles illustrated by the cases. The editors hope that readers, through reading these cases, will not only grasp the facts, judgments, and reasoning processes of each case but also gain insights into the legal systems of (Anglo-American countries) and the social value concepts and public policies they reflect.
