CLAUSES FOR THOUGHT
An appreciation by Phillip Taylor of Richmond Green Chambers
Since I reviewed the third edition, this work by Fosbrook & Laing has established itself as the key reference work for both the practitioner and the law student with its concise, trustworthy and comprehensive format. I was watching the latest in a long line of depressing items on television where the issue of the 'small print' was raised. And I immediately thought of 'Fosbrook & Laing' because I had remembered the earlier editions and some of the problems my learners and clients had raised with me over basic contractual issues.
The A-Z book of contract clauses is about the small print and, whilst I recognise this A-Z would be the great remedy for many insomniacs, I found the new edition remains crystal clear, and my best friend when it comes to help with the negotiation and drafting of contracts.
