Abstract

Frustration of Contract is a comprehensive treatment of the law of frustration in Canada and is the first book on this subject matter. Frustration is perhaps the strongest legal intervention in a contract bringing it to a termination when an unexpected catastrophic event makes the contract radically different from that to which the parties agreed.

Frustration of Contract examines what circumstances lead to frustration (and which do not) and discusses the consequences of frustration. It also examines the use of force majeure clauses that obviate the need for the doctrine of frustration.
