Dear colleagues,
Congratulations go out to ODGer Jordan English on the publication of Discharge
of Contractual Obligations (OUP, 2025). From the publisher's blurb:
This book delves into a fundamental question: under
what circumstances are parties released from their contractual duties for
reasons other than performance of those duties? By re-examining cases of
breach, frustration, and common mistake - three key doctrines in modern English
contract law - this monograph demonstrates how these disparate areas of
contract law are in fact instances of the discharge of contractual obligations
due to a failure of condition. Championing the once-dominant 'failure of condition'
model in English law, a straightforward yet groundbreaking explanation for
discharge is proposed: ordinarily, parties do not promise to perform 'no matter
what,' but instead make promises that depend on various explicit and implicit
conditions.
The attached flyer gives a 30% discount on
online orders.
Happy Reading!
