ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION The questions in this chapter relate to the statutory implied terms as to description, quality and fitness for purpose, to exclusion clauses and also to product liability. In some courses, the law of trade descriptions is dealt with in questions which also raise contractual issues (for example, under s 13 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979). This has not been done in this book because a number of sale of goods courses do not include trade descriptions in their syllabuses.
