Abstract:	Robert Clark's treatment of Irish contract law aims to provide readers with a guide to the complexities of contract law in Ireland. "Contract Law in Ireland" is organized under headings such as Consumer Protection, Importance and Relative Effect of Contractual Terms, Equitable Intervention, Duress, Damages and Restitution. Particular attention has been paid to recent developments in relation to subject to contact agreements, the law of mistake, misrepresentation and the important recent line of insurance law cases starting with "Aro Road". In fact, the book has been reorganized and expanded so as to facilitate a more detailed consideration of Irish case law, both old and new. The author considers the historical background to the current law and provides a detailed account of the present situation with copious illustrative case law.
