Description
Contract Law and Theory Sixth Edition Robert Scott ISBN: 9781531015213
Contract Law and Theory is the leading casebook for exploring the theoretical underpinnings of contract law. It identifies and develops clear themes and patterns within the field, encouraging students to construct a practical, working model of contract law.
This model uses three theoretical lenses—autonomy, efficiency, and pluralism—to analyze contract doctrine. Students are invited to consider how these perspectives intersect or diverge, applying them to predict the outcomes of disputes and to engage in critical case and doctrinal analysis.
The text begins with an overview chapter, and subsequent chapters feature introductory essays that outline fundamental doctrines and theoretical approaches, making the material accessible and engaging.
New to the Sixth Edition:
- A new section in Chapter Eight (Mistake and Excuse) examines recent COVID-related contract litigation.
- Two new cases and accompanying notes explore how pandemic-related disputes illustrate the contemporary relevance of mistake and excuse doctrines.
- Flexible teaching options: The new section can be used as a standalone module for a concise overview of mistake and excuse, or as part of a more in-depth examination of these doctrines.
- Updated and carefully edited content reflecting the latest scholarly trends and doctrinal developments while retaining the core, widely-taught cases.
This casebook remains the go-to resource for a rigorous yet accessible study of contract law, blending theoretical exploration with practical application to prepare students for real-world legal challenges.

Shipping & Returns
-
Fast, standard shipping
Most students receive their books in 3 to 9 business days.
-
Rental returns: free at semester's end, prorated if early
Print a prepaid return label from your account whenever you have finished with the book, and drop it at the carrier listed on the label. Returning it by your semester return date, or after it is already overdue, is free with no deduction. Returning it early, before that date, deducts a 15% restocking fee and the label cost from your refund.
-
Purchase returns: 15% restocking fee
Purchases can be returned within 30 days in the condition you received. We will email a prepaid return label; once we receive your book, we refund the purchase price minus the 15% restocking fee and the return label cost. Original shipping is non-refundable.
-
Shipping costs calculated at checkout
Real-time rates are quoted at checkout based on your address and the books in your cart. Returning your book by your semester date is always free; an early return deducts the restocking fee and label cost from your refund instead.
Rental Terms
Return by December 28, 2026 for Fall 2026 rentals.
- Late Fees
- Books returned after the semester deadline accrue a weekly late fee of about 10% of the book's Brand New price, for each copy that is overdue. The rent you have already paid counts toward the book's replacement value (its Brand New price), so late fees stop once your rent plus late fees reach it. That replacement value is the most a rental can ever cost you. We email a reminder 48 hours before any charge, and any late fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout.
- Damage Fees
- Books returned damaged beyond normal classroom wear may be assessed a damage fee, capped at the book's replacement value (its Brand New price). Any damage fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout after we inspect the returned book.
- Return Shipping
- Returning your book is free with no deduction if it reaches us by your semester return date, or after it's already overdue. Print a prepaid label (USPS or UPS, whichever is cheaper for your package) from your account's My Rentals page. Returning it EARLY, before your semester return date, deducts a 15% restocking fee and the label cost from your refund, the same as cancelling a shipped rental for a refund.
- 30-Day Cancellation
- Changed your mind? Cancel an active rental within 30 days of your order from My Account → My Rentals. Cancel before your book ships and it’s free; once it has shipped, we refund the rental price minus a 15% restocking fee and the return label cost, released once we receive your book. Shipping is non-refundable.
