- Summary:
- This book comprehensively explains the meaning, scope, and applications of all important clauses in business contracts. The clauses include, among others, integration, no oral modification, termination, damages and indemnity clauses. The book engages the reader with its innovative approach that the clauses are founded on common sense principles of contract law. It draws from the English court judgments, mostly the United Kingdom Supreme Court and the Court of Appeal, which have been at the forefront in expeditiously interpreting the contract terms. As the same clauses are being used everywhere, the book is relevant in all the jurisdictions. The contract terms are being borrowed, adopted and adapted globally and the courts are interpreting the meaning and scope of the terms. Business managers, business leaders, government officers and policy makers, world over, work with domestic and international contracts and will find take-aways from the book. Students of business management and business studies can use it as a textbook for elective courses in business management on negotiating and managing business contracts. It can also be used as a textbook for executive education of business managers and government officers.
