“In a modern society, we use contracts all the time. For example, contracts are involved in buying a cup of coffee, travelling on a bus, hiring a car, purchasing a house or constructing a building.”

(Heffy PG, Paterson JM & Hocker PJ. (1998) Contract: Commentary and Materials (8th ed.) Sydney: LBC Information Services. p.1)
