Good Faith and Relational Contracts, Volume 2 (Hardcover)

The author discusses the potential for good faith to unite a number of currently disparate contract law and equitable principles into a coherent framework, providing an opportunity to question and jettison some archaic aspects of existing doctrine that are no longer defensible.Ambitious and thoughtful, this is a significant statement on the role of good faith in private law.
