Synopsis

The Law of Contract in South Africa, third edition, offers a concise, accessible and rigorous introduction to the general principles of contract law in South Africa. The text presents fundamental principles within a clear and applied framework, and supports independent, enquiring and critical engagement with the subject matter. The third edition introduces a stronger focus on the impact of the Constitution upon contract law, specifically in relation to good faith, equity and public policy in contract, unfair contracts and unfair enforcement of a contract, and contains a substantially reworked chapter on contractual interpretation in light of recent developments. The Law of Contract in South Africa is suited as core material for courses in contract law, at undergraduate or postgraduate level. It is also a useful resource for practitioners who may wish to engage with foundational and current principles of the field.
