Description
The last edition of the book on Law of Contract had been published in 2013. Despite the earnest desire to come out with the Fourth edition at the earliest, it was not possible to do so since in the meantime we were occupied with further editions of our books titled Law of Arbitration and Conciliation (9th edition); Arbitration - Step by Step (2nd edition); and the book on Building and Engineering Contracts (5th edition), which consumed a lot of time. Finally bowing to the unrelenting pressure of the Publishers, we have been able to successfully complete the 4th edition, inspite of our professional commitments. We hope the final product would convince the esteemed readers of our effort and zeal. The short gaps between publishing of further editions of our books are a result of demand by the readers and the publishers, for which we consider ourselves truly blessed. The regularity of frequency of publishing of our books is an indicator of the fact that these have been well-received by the esteemed readers, be it on the Law of Contract, the Law of Arbitration, Law of Partnership, Arbitration - Step by Step or Emden's Building Contracts and Practice, 9th edn. The readers are a discerning lot. They will be the first to point out if any book is not worth reading. We have been extremely fortunate that we have been called upon to stand up to the test of the readers very frequently. This is more satisfying than any material gains. The Publishers, being in the commercial field, receive frequent feedback from their agents all over the country about the manner in which the books have been received in the market. Their repeated calls to us to bring out further editions are ample testimony of the fact that our product has been accepted with open arms by the readers. This imposes on us an onerous task of improving the final product so that the same is better than the previous edition. We are also very humbled by the fact that there are reported cases from various Courts, including the Apex Court, where extracts from our books have been quoted. No better acknowledgement is required about the quality of the final product and its vast acceptability.
