Description
This book is a single, combined volume on the law of obligations and contracts (Articles 1156 to 1422). It began as a teacher’s attempt to read the Civil Code the way a student must: one article at a time, slowly, and always against the cases that give each provision its life. Every one of its articles is treated in the same full way: the codal text, its terms of art, a running commentary, a candid critique, the author’s own proposed re-rendering, the article’s connections to the other fields of law, and a generous set of problems drawn from ordinary life — so that the book may serve at once as a classroom text, a bar-review companion, and a working reference.
