This book examines the nature and effect of contractual indemnities outside the insurance context. It is the first work to provide a detailed account of the subject in English law. The book presents a coherent theory of the promise of indemnity while also addressing important practical issues, such as the construction of contractual indemnities. The subject is approached from two perspectives. The foundations are laid by examining general principles applicable to indemnities in various forms. This covers the nature of indemnity promises; general principles of construction; the determination of scope; and the enforcement of indemnities. The approach then moves from the general to the specific, by examining separately particular forms of indemnity. Included among these are indemnities against liability to third parties, and indemnities against default or non-performance by third parties. The book states English law but it draws upon a considerable amount of material from other common law jurisdictions, including Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Singapore. It will appeal to readers from those countries."--Bloomsbury Publishing.Hart studies in private law ;v. 12.ContractsGreat BritainContractsIndemnity against liabilityGreat BritainIndemnity against liabilityContract lawContractsfast(OCoLC)fst00876969Indemnity against liabilityfast(OCoLC)fst00968864AustraliafastElectronic books.ContractsContracts.Indemnity against liabilityIndemnity against liability.Contracts.Indemnity against liability.346.4207Courtney Wayne1067714UtOrBLWUtOrBLWUkLoBPBOOK9910511642903321Contractual indemnities2551795UNINA
