Schweizerisches Obligationenrecht. Besonderer Teil

The law of obligations holds great significance in practice. This is reflected in its importance in legal education, where it serves as the foundational subject. The present book has established a firm place among legal textbooks with ten editions over a quarter of a century. It addresses contractual obligations, excluding labor law, publishing contracts, and corporate law, which are the subject of separate lectures. The author has made an effort to present the complex and not always straightforward material in an easily understandable manner, highlighting both the doctrinal structures and the richness of nuances in the specific part. Where beneficial for better understanding, there are also comparative legal and legal historical references. The discussion of numerous individual issues and the consideration of case law and literature make the book a useful reference work for practitioners.

The tenth revised edition brings the work up to date. The focal points, where relative completeness has been sought, are again on sales, leases, contracts for work, and mandates. However, the most important unnamed contracts are also presented.
