It may tackle entire legal orders or single issues. Moura Vicente chooses a middle course; in a systematic way he deals with the law of obligations (contracts, torts, restitution) covering a wide range of both common law and civil law systems. His international expertise witnessed by many comparative law publications in Portuguese, is now accessible to a broader community.’ – Jürgen Basedow, Max Planck Institute for Foreign and International Private Law, Germany 2021 496 pp Hardback 978 1 78990 580 9 £137.00 / $200.00 June 2023 Paperback 978 1 0353 2030 1 c £49.00 / c $70.00 eBook • Elgaronline NEW IN PAPERBACK Effective Communication for Lawyers A Practical Guide David Cowan, National University of Ireland Maynooth, Ireland and Université Catholique de Lyon, France ‘If communication, as David suggests, is better understood as the activity of sharing, then I think we are all fortunate that he has shared with us his insights into effective communication in this invaluable book. As a practising lawyer, I would rank effective communication as the most valuable skill a lawyer can possess; one that we must continually develop. The Dialogue Box is an excellent practical tool which aids that development for everyone from the first year law student to the most seasoned practitioner.’ – Tara Doyle, Matheson, Dublin, Ireland 2022 252 pp Hardback 978 1 83910 690 3 £75.00 / $115.00 June 2023 Paperback 978 1 0353 2031 8 c £25.00 / c $35.00 eBook • Elgaronline Elgar Guides to Professional Skills for Lawyers NEW ON ELGARONLINE Elgar Encyclopedia of Comparative Law Edited by Jan M.
