Sweet & Maxwell has published the fourth edition of Contractual Duties: Performance, Breach, Termination and Remedies by Neil Andrews, Andrew Tettenborn, and Graham Virgo.
Contractual Duties: Performance, Breach, Termination and Remedies provides guidance from three leading contract academics on the duties at play in a contract that is in dispute: its performance, breach, termination and the remedies available.
It covers the structure of the law of damages, laying out the measures of award. In addition, it explains financial loss, covering the various ways of expressing the loss, via concepts such as expectation, reliance, consequential damage, 'cost of cure' and balance sheet calculation. There is also a chapter dedicated to agreed damages.
The law of contract and contract remedies has evolved significantly since the last 2020 edition. Substantial case law updates, including numerous Supreme Court decisions across all four key areas of the book have been considered and analysed, especially in the areas of rescission, breach and performance, frustration, and remedies.
