This new text provides an overview of the two foundational law subjects of Obligations I (contract) and Obligations II (tort). It does not aim to be a textbook covering both subjects in full detail. It is intended, instead, to provide students with a basic structural and methodological grasp of contract and tort, together with an outline of associated topics such as restitution and remedies. In addition it will provide a European and International context to the law of obligations in order to encourage students of contract and tort to appreciate alternative models to the ones to be found in England. These alternative viewpoints will evidently be useful as aspects of the law of obligations are increasingly synchronized within the EU. Yet they can equally be of value in the understanding of English law itself, in that comparison can reveal hidden aspects to a number of contract, tort and remedy cases. The book departs from the normal chapter headings associated with standard works on contract and tort and approaches obligations mainly, although not exclusively, in terms of liability. The text argues that importing the category of a "law of obligations" from the civil law world does not come without serious conceptual problems.

General Tortious Liability And Contractual Liability Words 7 Pages Described nature of general tortious liability comparing and contrasting to contractual liability A tort is referred to as a civil or private wrong that may not necessarily be a breach of contract for which a remedy for damages would be given by a lawsuit. Read books on sales, persuasion, negotiation, as it will overflow into every area of life; every area of “getting things done” at work at home, in your relationship, or when you need help (someone to bail you out of jail?), if you do not know sales negotiation and persuasion, you will fail at virtually all areas of life.
The difference between tort and contract is easy to identify if you understand the concept of each clearly. In fact, the terms Tort and Contract are not uncommon or ambiguous terms.
