• Summary:"Part A examines the issues that unite the different aspects of mistake and make it a "family" of doctrines, as well as the relationship between the family of mistake doctrines and other doctrines that arise in contract contexts. In Part B, readers will learn about the various context and doctrines of mistake. In particular, attention is paid to mistake inside the contract, such as errors connected to the obligations the parties have taken on or the very nature of the transaction - non est factum. Other examples of this type of mistake are examined in chapters on errors in particular terms in the contract or in how the contract was recorded. Mistake in the background to the contract is discussed in detail in chapters relating to erroneous assumptions made by the parties or by one party that, at least in part, induced the contract, as well as mistake as to the identity of the other party. Ultimately, lawyers and other legal professionals can rely on this text to provide a comprehensive treatment and analysis of developments in the area of mistake in both Canada and the U.K., including the recent Supreme Court of Canada cases that address the issue of rectification" --publisher's description
