Recenzje

'Japanese Contract is a wonderful book. It is the first major study in English that integrates doctrinal and empirical analysis of contemporary contract law in Japan...It is well worth reading and stands as a commendable model for what students following William Visser'T Hooft should aim for - The Australian Journal of Asian Law

'Like all good theses on Japanese law, this goes above and beyond the pure representation and offers to the reader much more than could be deduced from comparable Japanese sources.' - Rabels Zeitchreift für ausländisches und internationales Privatrecht
