The text, problems and cases address issues of concern not only to litigators but also to transactional lawyers who structure transactions to allocate duties and risks in order to avoid litigation. The materials provide explanations for students unfamiliar with either international sales transactions or domestic sales law. Teachers using the book themselves need not be specialists. The authors have maintained most of the Problem exercises from the first edition, but have added the leading cases of the past decade to enrich the fabric of the current law. The Teacher’s Manual suggests ways the materials may be taught and supplemented.

 Secured Transactions Under the Uniform Commercial Code and International Commerce presents a clear and concise guide through the law of security interests included in Article 9 and Article 1. Students benefit from the user-friendly problems exploring each issue, illustrating in a concise way how the Code applies to transactions, both as to legal result and as a guide to drafting agreements and financial statements. 
 A significant body of case law from around the country is included in this Second Edition. This new edition is even more user-friendly than the prior edition. Some highlights of the Second Edition are: 
 • Notes on "The Role of Codes, Statutes and Case Law " and "Simplifying Complicated Statutory Language " to introduce students to statutory interpretation and help them develop skills to better understand the sometimes complicated text of Article 9. 
 • Hypothetical Problems are used on a continuing basis to help students navigate through secured transactions from creation (Chapter 2), to enforcement (Chapter 3), to perfection and priority of the security interest (Chapter 4). With this model, students work with more interesting and more easily understood problems rather than a series of unrelated hypotheticals. 
 • Difficult problems created by errors in financing statements, in particular with reference to names of individual debtors, are addressed with new cases interpreting Revised Article 9. 
 • Early exposure to In Re QDS which forces them to work with difficult and complicated statutory language to distinguish the so-called "true lease " from the "dirty lease. "
 • New materials illustrating breach of the peace, notification, and commercially reasonable foreclosure requirements. 
 • Chapter 5 on bankruptcy has been updated to include more comprehensive analysis of the 2005 amendments to the Bankruptcy Code and expanded to include discussion of state and federal rules on fraudulent transfers. 
 The introduction to cross-border secured transactions (Chapter 6), a topic of more and more relevance and one typically not covered in other casebooks.

Through judicial opinions, statutes, conventions, documents, and textual notes, this Admiralty casebook shows how lawyers help their clients reallocate the risks inherent in domestic and international maritime transactions, and how lawyers help resolve disputes that arise from maritime transportation. The Sixth Edition updates the treatment of the usual topics and significantly rearranges the structure. A new chapter titled “Loss Allocation” combines previous chapters on general average, marine insurance, and limitation of liability into a single presentation. This new chapter addresses questions such as whether a potential loss can be reallocated in advance; whether to leave the loss where it falls or to make the duty-breacher pay; and whether the loss is limited, shared, or diverted to another party. The editors have sought to keep the Sixth Edition both comfortable for long-time users and accessible to new users.
