Summary |
Commercial law and practice are riddled with examples of parties formally and informally altering the bargains into which they have entered. The means by which such alteration occurs are contained within the doctrines of waiver, variation and estoppel. Waiver, Variation and Estoppel provides definitions of these notoriously difficult doctrines together with a detailed analysis of how they apply throughout the commercial law in doctrine and practice |
