Review Quotes:

"This is an interesting book. It is at once a good introduction to the German law of contracts and torts; a study of sociological jurisprudence; and a thought-provoking exploration of modern commercial relations... A huge benefit in the book is the excellent introduction by Hugh Collins.
The extensive bibliography Teubner presents is testament to his extraordinary learning. For a scholar seeking to explore the wilder shores of contractual relations, this book would be an excellent place to start." --Angela Swan, Canadian Business Law Journal, Volume 52

"For anyone wanting to get to grips with contractual networks, this impressive book is essential reading." --Roger Brownsword, The Modern Law Review, Volume 75, Issue 3

"...highly recommended to those who might be interested in the law of obligations, with a specific emphasis on the law of business organisations." --Goh Yihan, Singapore Journal of Legal Studies
