Contract Law: Rules, Cases, and Problems gives faculty the flexibility to shape their course their way—whether it's four, six, or eight credits. Its modular structure ensures full doctrinal coverage without requiring professors to teach any single case or problem, making it easy to balance breadth and depth.

For asynchronous courses, the book removes the burden of online course prep with built-in lecture scripts and structured assessments—a complete, ready-to-use foundation for an online contracts course. Professors can simply record the scripts, integrate the assessments, and have a fully designed, high-quality online course in minutes instead of months.

In live classrooms, the same materials enhance student engagement and simplify faculty workload. Discussion prompts, problem sets, and built-in assessments ensure that students don't just learn doctrine but practice applying it—mirroring the skills they need for exams and real-world lawyering.


A comprehensive teacher's manual provides ready-to-use course plans, curated case selections, and adaptable teaching strategies, allowing faculty to emphasize bar exam readiness, real-world problem-solving, or advanced legal theory—without sacrificing coherence. Early adopters report that students engage more deeply and master difficult doctrines faster.



Assessment content tailored to the book is available via CAP's Core Knowledge for Lawyers platform, access to which is included in the price of a new book.
