This practical text draws together the various strands of legislation relating to the sale and supply of goods, together with a background to the law of contract. The text also includes all relevant statutes and SIs, creating a comprehensive one-volume guide to the law. There is a great interaction between the sale and supply of goods and services and consumer credit. Important recent cases, such as Dimond v Lovell, have led to a dramatic increase in litigation in this area. Blackstone's Sale & Supply of Goods & Services provides a practical and comprehensive guide to the Consumer Credit Act 1974, and includes up-to-date coverage of credit hire agreements. While the text provides in-depth analysis, the focus is strictly on the practitioner. The law is explained unambiguously and presented so as to give clear answers to the problems that present themselves in day-to-day practice. Model pleadings and contracts are also provided to guide the practitioner. In the modern day there is a huge interaction between the Blackstone's Sale & Supply of Goods & Services will be indispensable for practitioners specialising in the fields of commercial and consumer law. It will also be of considerable interest to students on the LPC and BVC courses.
