Building on the reputation of previous editions, the 17th edition of “Bowstead and Reynolds on Agency” has been extensively revised and updated, and considers the substantial body of case law that has been generated since the 16th edition of 1995

This volume considers and analyzes the many cases dealing with agency matters which have occurred since publication of the last edition. Each chapter consists of a series of numbered articles which state the law concisely. Many of these are illustrated with facts from a relevant case.

The twenty-fourth edition of Chitty on contracts has been published in two volumes (Volume 1: General Principles; Volume 2: Specific Contracts) by Sweet and Maxwell Limited, London. Divergencies in legislative provisions have rendered much of the material in Volume 2 no longer of direct application in Australia.
