This is a festschrift for Patrick Atiyah - one one of the most important legal scholars of recent years - by a glittering array of his colleagues, friends, and admirers.
Patrick Atiyah is one of the most important legal scholars of his generation in the common-law world. His publications cover a wide field: legal theory, legal history, the study of legal institutions, the law of tort (especially compensation for personal injuries) and, most famously perhaps, the law of contract. It is no exaggeration to say that by his work, Atiyah has opened up new ways of thinking about the law of obligations. This volume of essays, written by colleagues, friends, and admirers of Patrick Atiyah from the UK and abroad, reflects the breadth of his interests. As well as discussions of particular aspects of the law of contract and tort, it contains essays on the history and theory of contract and tort and on the role of judges and law teachers. There is also an assessment of the `law in context'' movement of which Patrick Atiyah was a founder member and leading practitioner.Contributors: William Twining, Tony Honoré, Jan Hellner, Robert S.
