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. 410 0$aHart studies in private law ;$vv. 12. 606 $aContracts$zGreat Britain 606 $aContracts 606 $aIndemnity against liability$zGreat Britain 606 $aIndemnity against liability 606 $2Contract law 606 $aContracts$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00876969 606 $aIndemnity against liability$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00968864 607 $aAustralia$2fast 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aContracts 615 0$aContracts. 615 0$aIndemnity against liability 615 0$aIndemnity against liability. 615 7$aContracts. 615 7$aIndemnity against liability. 676 $a346.4207 700 $aCourtney$b Wayne$01067714 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910511642903321 996 $aContractual indemnities$92551795 997 $aUNINA
