Problems and Materials on Commercial Law 13th Edition
By Douglas J. Whaley and Stephen M. McJohn

ISBN 9798892074865

Widely praised for its clarity, accessibility, and practical focus, Problems and Materials on Commercial Law has long been a favorite among students and professors alike. Now in its Thirteenth Edition, this trusted casebook continues to provide comprehensive yet concise coverage of the foundational concepts and contemporary developments in Commercial Law.

This casebook is expertly designed to help students master the often-challenging language of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) and understand how the black letter law operates in real-world contexts. With its problem-based pedagogy, the text encourages active learning through thoughtful hypotheticals, real-life scenarios, and probing questions that drive classroom engagement.

Comprehensive Coverage, Intuitive Structure
Organized in a logical sequence that follows the UCC’s structure—Articles 2 (Sales), 3 (Negotiable Instruments), 4 (Bank Deposits and Collections), and 9 (Secured Transactions)—the book offers seamless adaptability to a range of teaching approaches. Professors can follow the UCC straight through or mix and match topics to suit their course focus.

What’s New in the Thirteenth Edition?
The latest edition reflects the evolving landscape of commercial law with significant updates and timely additions:

Sales (UCC Article 2):

Contemporary problems involving cryptocurrency and its classification under sales law
Examination of whether platforms like Amazon Marketplace qualify as sellers under the UCC
Updated treatment of online contract formation and requirements contracts
New hypotheticals and cases exploring pandemic-related contract performance, specific performance remedies, and the interplay between adequate assurance and anticipatory repudiation

Payment Systems (UCC Articles 3 and 4):

Coverage of the new UCC Article 12, governing digital assets
Updated problems on lost promissory notes and new insights on overdraft fee litigation
Fresh cases dealing with bank liability for fraudulent account openings and negligence in electronic funds transfers
Expanded discussion on account fraud and consumer protections in the digital age

Secured Transactions (UCC Article 9):

In-depth treatment of the 2022 UCC Amendments, including the revolutionary new Article 12 on digital assets such as NFTs and cryptocurrencies
Updated cases addressing the scope of Article 9, attachment and perfection, purchase-money security interests, filing errors, and repossession protocols
Innovative new problems focused on applying secured transactions law to emerging technologies and digital property

Key Features That Set This Casebook Apart:

Clear, student-friendly format that demystifies the statutory language and complex doctrine
Flexible modular design, ideal for professors who prefer to emphasize specific areas or rearrange topics
Dynamic “problems” approach that fosters critical thinking and real-world application of doctrine
Thoughtfully curated case selection featuring the most impactful and illustrative judicial decisions
Concise and manageable length, striking the perfect balance between depth and digestibility
Multiple-choice questions at the end of each chapter, complete with detailed answer explanations, to support self-assessment and exam prep
Experienced authorship from nationally recognized experts in commercial and consumer law

Whether used in a full-year Commercial Law course or as part of specialized courses in Sales, Secured Transactions, or Payment Systems, Problems and Materials on Commercial Law continues to be a leading resource—rigorous in content, accessible in presentation, and engaging in style.

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.
