New edition: Principles of Contractual Interpretation by Richard Calnan

From our friends at Oxford University Press:

“Written with the busy practitioner in mind, Richard Calnan’s Principles of Contractual Interpretation is a concise and insightful book that sets out the principles that guide the courts in interpreting contracts. Each principle is covered in its own dedicated chapter, supported by case law which illustrates how the principle works in practice and in its wider context. In addition to interpretation of contracts, the book also considers the implication of terms, rectification, and estoppel by convention. 

This new edition is fully updated to include new case law. It considers the implications of key decisions of the Supreme Court in Arnold v Britton and Marks & Spencer v BNP Paribas, and BNY Mellon v LBG Capital. As well as a discussion of the Makdessi v Cavendish Supreme Court case on penalties. This book provides an invaluable reference for lawyers drafting, interpreting and litigating on contracts.”
