A final chapter discusses how contract law can be used to make gifts of binding promises to other people. The book provides a rigorous and stimulating journey through the ideas underpinning contract law and is essential reading for anyone with an interest in the subject.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'Clearly written and bursting with interesting and novel ideas, this lively book will be a great resource for anyone interested in Contract Law.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePaul S Davies, Professor of Commercial Law, University College London\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNicholas J McBride is a Fellow of Pembroke College, Cambridge.
