Contracts: Cases, Discussion, and Problems is known for its strikingly clear, straightforward text that illuminates cases as well as concepts and theory. Carefully edited modern, engaging cases are presented in context along with classic older cases. Insightful questions draw attention to difficult and crucial aspects of the law and prompt vigorous class discussion. Manageable problems supplement cases and introduce topics taught most effectively through problems.
The casebook’s traditional organization begins with formation and then corresponds to the sequence followed by the Restatement (2nd) of Contracts and treatises. Its concise, efficient presentation results in an optimum length for the course. Transactional issues such as drafting, client counseling, and negotiation are emphasized through the use of questions and small exercises throughout the text. Strengthening the text’s focus on contemporary methods of contracting, modern issues in standard contracts are explored along with contracts entered into electronically. International and comparative material offers alternative approaches for students to consider, such as those taken by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) and the UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts.

Prior to joining the faculty, Professor Bushaw was a partner with the law firm of Hughes & Luce, LLP in Texas. Among other clients, she represented financial institutions in a broad range of domestic and international transactions. Some of the transactions were corporate acquisitions; others established commercial lending facilities; yet others involved real estate. As a student at Yale she was a research assistant for the Lawyers' Committee for Human Rights, and pursued research on martial law in Poland. She also worked on the Yale Journal of International Law. In Bushaw’s second year of teaching at Lewis & Clark, and again in her fourth, she was voted the Leo Levenson award for excellence in teaching by the graduating class. Her research interests include theories of legal education and legal practice, transactional approaches to legal issues, non-economic interests in business law, and the intersections among commercial law and economic and social development. She has recently co-authored a Contracts text with Professor Brian Blum. She has published articles relating to economic and social development in the United States and abroad, and she has concentrated on small business development in particular. Her specific international focus is central and eastern Europe, and she has conducted research, taught classes and lectured throughout the region.
Professor Blum practiced as an attorney in Johannesburg, South Africa, from 1972 to 1975 and as an advocate in the following two years. Blum taught part time at the School of Law of the University of Witwatersrand while in practice as an advocate. He joined the law school faculty in 1978. Blum has published law review articles on bankruptcy law, contracts and commercial law as well as a books on bankruptcy and debtor-creditor law and contracts.
