Contracts: A Context and Practice Casebook, Fourth Edition
The fourth edition of Contracts: A Context and Practice Casebook continues to offer an innovative, practice-oriented approach that actively engages students in the roles of legal practitioners. Through simulated law practice problems, contextual overviews, and carefully designed exercises, the casebook promotes both doctrinal mastery and professional development.
Each chapter begins with a concise overview of the relevant law and highlights how key issues typically arise in practice. Chapters are structured to promote self-reflective reading, using features such as call-out notes, visual aids, and case illustrations. Professionalism inquiries at the end of each chapter encourage students to consider ethical and professional identity questions raised by the materials.
This edition updates many existing problems and introduces new exercises that reflect current developments in legal pedagogy. It deepens its focus on transactional skills, including a new exercise that guides students through the negotiation and revision of potential contract provisions. Each chapter also includes targeted sections on issue spotting and analysis, relevant both to law practice and exam preparation.
A standout feature of the book is its dedicated chapter on responding to essay and multiple-choice exam questions, complete with updated materials integrated with Carolina Academic Press’s Core Knowledge for Lawyers software. Earlier chapters include dozens of practice problems—many developed in collaboration with practicing attorneys—to reinforce student understanding through application.
The casebook also incorporates the extensive use of color, charts, diagrams, and illustrations throughout to enhance visual learning, clarify complex concepts, and emphasize key material.
The comprehensive Teacher’s Manual includes clearly articulated learning objectives for each doctrinal area, detailed teaching guidance, and a wealth of additional multiple-choice questions to support instruction.
Core Knowledge for Lawyers content for this title will be available in Fall 2025.

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.
