Arbitration Law and Practice (American Casebook Series)

The Eighth Edition of this popular casebook fully integrates the most recent SCOTUS cases, including Epic Systems v. Lewis and Kindred Nursing Centers, Ltd. Partnership v. Clark, as well as a number of significant lower court decisions from the last three years. To keep pace with the rapid evolution of arbitration law, the new edition refines its organization to more precisely define issues of critical importance while retaining comprehensive coverage. In particular, the early chapters have been revised to provide pinpoint articulation of the core concepts and principles of arbitration law. Meanwhile, the later chapters on fairness in arbitration and enforcement of arbitral awards have been expanded and reworked to account for current trends in the decisional law. As with prior editions, this volume aims to be a teaching tool, allowing students and instructors to comprehensively assess the defining work of the Supreme Court while predicting when, why, and how the law will continue to change.
