Synopsis

Discover the essentials of contracts and negotiable instruments for practical law and business. This classic text explains how promises become binding and how checks, drafts, and other instruments work in real transactions.

This edition lays out the core ideas behind contract formation, including when a promise is binding and how the form or substance of a promise affects enforceability. It explains the difference between sealed and simple contracts, the role of consideration, and how mutual assent is expressed through offers and acceptances. The material also covers how negotiable instruments fit into commerce, with explanations of bills of exchange, notes, and checks.

- Learn how contracts are created, interpreted, and discharged in ordinary business dealings
- Understand the practical distinctions between sealed and simple contracts
- Explore the basics of negotiable instruments, including form, negotiation, and liability
- See how concepts like offer, acceptance, consideration, and presentment apply in real cases

Ideal for students, bankers, lawyers, and professionals who deal with commercial law and financial instruments.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue.
