Straightforward, back-to-basics approach, engaging problems: Problems and Cases on Secured Transactions is exactly the right casebook to introduce students to the intricacies of UCC Article 9 and modern secured financing. With an artful combination of textual material, detailed citations to the UCC, engaging problems and questions, and well-edited cases, James Brook demonstrates to students that this material need not be impenetrable but can be completely comprehensible and enjoyable as well.
When you examine a copy of this casebook, notice the many features that are bound to make it an asset in your classroom:
presents the material, which so cases are heavily edited, with

many students find daunting on first approach, as easily accessible and as manageable as possible without oversimplification or avoiding difficult aspects of the topic uses the problem-based approach with thoroughly engaging and imaginative scenarios that draw students in, encouraging the user to appreciate goals, concerns, opportunities and risks from each partys perspective problems progress from simple to more complex, giving students the opportunity to appreciate the common elements and internalize the idea that rules and principals learned in a simpler setting can readily be applied to more complex transactions. Earlier problems lean more heavily, though not exclusively, on the individual and consumer-borrower situations; later problems include progressively more small-business and large-business transactions

editorial notes liberally used to fill in the blanks, while maintaining the underlying story that is present in all cases helps student appreciate that the principal resource for the course is UCC Article 9 as found the statutory supplement. Professor Brook reinforces the concept that the casebook is a tool to be used for study, in preparing before class and during class as a guide or outline for discussion, but that the law is found in the Code usable with either original or Revised version of Article 1 a comprehensive Teachers Manual and a companion website for adopters that will include regular updates and a possible forum for ongoing discussion with other users

This problem-based casebook uses sales systems as an organizing framework for a thorough examination of domestic sales of goods, leases, international sales, and real estate sales.

More than 60 countries, including the United States of America, have ratified the Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). Since CISG Contracting Sales account for more than two-thirds of all world trade, the Convention clearly represents a key aspect of American Commercial law. By drawing comparisons with domestic (UCC) sales law, the author explains the CISG in terms familiar to American jurists, just as special emphasis is placed on CISG decisions rendered by U.S courts and the Article 95 reservation made by the United States. But since the CISG treaty demands an international interpretation, this expanded and fully updated Second Edition continues to draw upon the full range of CISG sources, including the increasingly numerous decisions and awards rendered by courts and arbitrators worldwide. Concrete examples and illustration are provided throughout. Five appendices offer a wealth of reference material, including the complete text of the Convention and an extensive table of cases and arbitral awards.
