"Positioned within contract law, this new work deals with the assignment of things in action - debts, contractual rights. It deals only with voluntary assignment and not compulsory assignment as with bankruptcy or liquidation. This book is intended for the practitioner who has a problem, issue or case involving the voluntary assignment of things in action, either in giving advice or preparing litigation. Following the approach of titles such as Chitty on Contracts, this work enables the practitioner to find a statement of the law and then (if necessary) the authority that supports it." -- Publisher's website.
