This theoretical exploration of Contract Law has very practical implications. By focusing initially on theory, students develop a framework for analyzing and predicting the outcome of contract disputes. Working from that framework, students gain an understanding of the lawyer's counseling and drafting functions so as to avoid future contract disputes. In order to meet their pedagogical objectives, the authors employ the following features and / or themes:
• Overview chapter presents the issues, methods, theory, and basic doctrines of modern contract law, serving as both a framework for analysis as well as a preview of subsequent chapters.
• Many chapters contain introductory essays that present some of the basic doctrines and theoretical approaches covered in the chapter. Additional essays within each chapter sharpen the focus on the particular doctrines discussed in each section.
• Extensive Note sections encourage students to integrate theory and doctrine in specific contexts.
• Contract rules are evaluated using a functional approach so that students consider the underlying purposes and policy goals.

Teacher's Manual to Contract Law and Theory, 3rd Ed.

Using a theoretical model for teaching contracts without sacrificing either sensible case selection or doctrinal detail, the authors' commitment to the practical use of theory also commits them to a functional analysis of contract law. This serves to emphasize the instrumental effects of contract rules - how the rules are likely to influence the behaviour of similarly situated parties in the future. However, the commitment to a functional analysis of contract law does not demand the acceptance of any particular dogma. The theoretical perspective of the book aims to shape pedagogic objectives. Chapter one has a thorough doctrinal and theoretical overview, while the remaining cases, essays and notes in chapters two to ten are designed as a database, to test the introductory themes. This approach has several benefits. Once the students are familiar with both doctrine and theory, they can begin to focus on the counselling functions that contract lawyers perform. The book reminds students to study reported cases in order to avoid similar problems. A 2002 supplement is also available.
