But contract law is complex and intricate, and disputes over contracts have led to a wealth of court cases over the years.

This updated third edition gives you a clear and concise introduction to the basics of the law of contract as it pertains to Scotland, from what a contract is to how they are formed, terminated and breached, and from third-party rights to cross-border contracts.
