Preface
The primary purpose of this book is to illustrate and explain the elementary principles of Thai private law, in a simple and readable style that should appeal to a wide readership of students, academics, and practitioners. The text is organized around the major issues relating to private law and provides a concise and systematic overview of the norms regulating legal relationships between private persons. Although all topics have been previously treated in the Thai language, this book is one of the first and most complete works in the English language about Thai private law. The book covers not only the legal system, starting from the Civil and Commercial Code and emphasizing the substantial changes that have been introduced in the past decades, but also the deep influence of doctrine and case law. It is built up in several layers, starting from the general rule, to gradually examine the more specific ones. As it is common in civil law legal systems, the analysis of the specific cases follows the explanation of the general rule. The 6 chapters are each designed to present a detailed analysis of a particular area of Thai private law and discuss the principal issues encountered in a legal practice without unnecessary detail. To some extent, each chapter is intended to address a specific topic which can be read independently of the rest of the book. Chapter 1 intro
