When a contract is formed on a false basis, the law presents a critical choice: misrepresentation or mistake. That choice is not merely academic-it can determine liability, remedies, and ultimately, the outcome of a case.

Misrepresentation or Mistake: What to Plead For? offers a clear, practitioner-focused analysis of how these two doctrines operate in modern contract law, and - crucially - how to choose between them strategically. Moving beyond theory, the book examines how courts approach false assumptions, how losses are allocated, and how procedural decisions can shape substantive outcomes.

Through detailed analysis of leading authorities, statutory provisions, and real-world litigation scenarios, the book provides a structured framework for identifying the correct cause of action. It explores the tactical implications of each route, including rescission, damages, evidential burdens, and procedural constraints.

Designed for legal practitioners, students, and researchers, this work bridges the gap between legal doctrine and litigation strategy. It equips readers not only to understand the law, but to apply it effectively - ensuring that the right argument is advanced at the right time.

This is not just a guide to the law - it is a guide to pleading it correctly.
