Contracts: A Modern Coursebook, Second Edition by Ben Templin is an innovative coursebook unlike any other on the market. The book takes a hybrid approach between a "traditional" casebook and a problems-based casebook, incorporating a more thorough discussion of the law followed by cases then problems. Featuring a unique design that engages the reader and incorporates professional skills and experiential-type learning, Contracts: A Modern Coursebook is a revolutionary, classroom-tested book. Rather than playing "hide the ball," professors using this book will be able to say, "Here's the ball. Let's play catch."

New to the Second Edition:

• Now Over 500 Questions and Problems, nearly doubling the number of questions and answers for professors to use to assess students. A new section--Questions for Review--tests students' understanding of the law before they try the more difficult analytic problems.
• Enhanced analytic problems--updated based on feedback from professors and students
• New cases with tighter editing to adjust the mix between classic and contemporary cases for greater balance, and to focus on the core lesson
• More flowcharts and tables, providing additional visual learning aids to help students synthesize concepts
• More examples and case illustrations to keep students engaged and to stimulate critical thinking
• Design enhancements, including a redesign of "Rule Boxes" that makes parsing the rule statements easier for students
• A new numbering system to more easily track "Learning Outcomes" to "Explanations" to "Case Law" to "Assessments"

• Learning Objectives
• Clear and Concise Explanations of the Law
