It covers, in an engaging and accessible manner, emerging areas of commercial law alongside the key components of traditional commercial law courses. As such it will be an invaluable resource for undergraduates, postgraduates and those in practice.' James Devenney, University of Exeter
'This book provides a contemporary and accessible account of the central areas of commercial law, as well as offering discussion of more specialist topics. It will be of interest to all students of commercial law subjects.' Christian Twigg-Flesner, University of Hull
'The text's excellent written style, which covers the key principles in a clear and accessible way … means it is an excellent text for anyone interested in, or studying, commercial law. Let us hope we do not have too long [to wait] for a second edition!' Russell J. Kelsall, The Student Law Journal
