Details

This collection brings together a team of outstanding scholars from across the common law to explore the treatment of misleading silence in private law doctrine and theory, embracing a comparative analysis. Whereas previous studies have been contractual in focus, here the topic is explored from across the full spectrum of private law. Its approach encompasses equitable, common law and statutory principles and draws on theoretical, historical, cross-disciplinary and doctrinal perspectives. This is truly a landmark publication in private law, with no competitor in the common law world.
