Bloomsbury Publishing PLC English and European Perspectives on Contract and Commercial Law: Essays in Honour of Hugh Beale 2014 by Edited by Professor Louise Gullifer Edited by Professor Stefan Vogenauer
The purpose of this book is to honour the influential and wide-ranging work of Professor Hugh Beale. It contains essays by twenty-five very distinguished authors each of whom has worked with Professor Beale as a co-author as a teaching colleague during his time as Law Commissioner of England and Wales or as part of the study groups working in Europe on contract and commercial law. The essays reflect different aspects of Professor Beales interests. Some concentrate on English contract law either from a historical or a current perspective while others are focused on aspects of European contract law. There are four essays looking at current issues relating to security and financing and as befits a former Law Commissioner three essays on law reform. The essays in the final section discuss trends in transnational and European commercial law. This book brings together the reflections of eminent writers from all over Europe on important issues facing contract and commercial law and will be of interest to all scholars and practitioners working in these areas.show more
