Government Contract Law: Cases and Materials (Carolina Academic Press Law Casebook Series) [Paperback]

Charles Tiefer (Author), William A. Shook (Author)

Book Description

ISBN-10: 0890899606 | ISBN-13: 978-0890899601 | Publication Date: August 1999

This book explores the dynamic field of government contract law. Tiefer and Shook offer the first contemporary one-volume casebook for a Government Contracts course, which is also immensely valuable for a private law practice or government office.

The casebook makes government contract law accessible to readers of all backgrounds, from second-year law students who have taken only basic contract law, to commercial lawyers and non-lawyer government contract professionals seeking a broad legally focused introduction to the field.

While all the traditional areas of interest receive coverage, the book emphasizes cases from increasingly important areas such as high technology, health care, commercial products, and state needs. A teacher’s manual is available.

This review is from: Government Contract Law: Cases and Materials (Carolina Academic Press Law Casebook Series) (Paperback)

Quality Texts on Government Contract Law are hard to come by. This is one of the few that is well written. There is an excellent selection of cases and excellent concise commentary. You will get the most out of this text if you are familiar with reviewing cases (i.e. an attorney or law student).
