About the Authors
  • This is the first comprehensive work to capture the rise of moral damages (non-pecuniary loss) in European contract law through a historical and comparative analysis. Unique features of this study include the first classification scheme of the systems into liberal, moderate and conservative regimes, a taxonomy of non-pecuniary loss drawn from a European-wide jurisprudence, and a comprehensive bibliography of the subject. Written by a leading academic on comparative law, Palmer's precise and practical insights on Europe's leading cases will be of great interest to academic researchers and practitioners alike.

    • The first comprehensive study of non-pecuniary loss in European contract law
    • A broad comparative and historical perspective covering twelve countries and both civil law and common law traditions
    • Precise and practical insights focused on Europe's leading cases
