The Ninth Edition of Cases, Problems, and Materials on Contracts by Douglas J. Whaley and David Horton continues its legacy as a cornerstone of contract law education, blending classic cases, contemporary developments, and stimulating problems to help students master the subject. Renowned for pioneering the problem method in law school teaching, this text has long been a favorite for its comprehensive coverage and innovative approach.

Highlights of the Ninth Edition:

• Streamlined and accessible content: Complex issues are introduced through clear narrative summaries and explicit black-letter law statements, while tightly edited cases enhance clarity and focus.
• Engaging problem-based learning: Carefully crafted problems reinforce key concepts, encourage critical thinking, and expose students to real-world applications.
• Flexible organization: While the book traditionally begins with "Agreement" and moves to "Consideration," it accommodates varying teaching preferences, including starting with "Consideration" or "Remedies." The text also adapts seamlessly to courses that include or exclude sales and fits 4-, 5-, or 6-unit courses.
