The book presents a careful insight into the world of international sales contracts in the context of contract avoidance and the subsequent rights and obligations of the parties concerned. The book presents a study of the previous attempts at harmonising international trade in the form of the 1964 Hague Conventions and the present attempt in the form of a codified CISG. The book proceeds on the assumption of observance of good faith in international trade and the use of legislative history and doctrinal writings in the interpretation of the CISG. The book further looks at the terms and conditions of avoidance of contract and the consequent implications on the rights and obligations of the buyer and the seller.
