Miceli, Thomas J.
The economic approach to law - 3rd ed. - California Stanford University Press 2017 - xxvii, 413 p. ill. Includes bibliographical references and index
Table of contents
Introductory concepts
An economic model of tort law
Applying the economic model of tort law
The economics of contract law I: the elements of a valid contract
The economics of contract law II: remedies for breach
The economics of property law: fundamentals
Involuntary transfers and regulation of property
The economics of dispute resolution

The economics of antitrust law.
Master teacher Thomas J. Miceli provides an introduction to law and economics that reveals how economic principles can explain the structure of the law and make it more efficient.
The third edition of this seminal textbook is thoroughly updated to include recent cases and the latest scholarship, with particular attention paid to torts, contracts, property rights, and the economics of crime. A new chapter organization, ideal for quarter- or semester-long courses, strengthens the book's focus on unifying themes in the field. As Miceli tells a cohesive, analytical "story" about law from a distinctly economic perspective, exercises and problems encourage students to deepen their knowledge.
A companion website is available at http://www.sup.org/economiclaw. It offers a full suite of resources for both students and professors. Key pedagogical features include cases; discussion points that provide additional analysis of topics in the book; graduate notes, which enrich the text for more advanced readers; and relevant links. Professors have access to sample syllabi for undergraduate and graduate courses and an instructor's manual, which provides answers to all of the end-of-chapter questions and problems in the book.
