Professor Dewald, is the transcript of this video available to download/print?

So whether the contract is unilateral or bilateral depends on how the offeror moulds his words and puts forward the offer. Is that so? I mean to ask, can a same offer, just by wording it in a different way, be changed from a unilateral to bilateral and vice versa?

What about contracts that deal with situations where communications criss-cross, such as when there is an Offer followed by a Revocation by the Offeror followed by Acceptance by the Offeree, respectively?
Or
An Offer followed by Acceptance by the Offeree followed by Revocation by the Offeror, respectively?

You said: Unilateral / Bilateral contracts are important only if "mutual assent" is an issue: Can you elaborate on this?

This is so helpful, but since I'm focusing on Caribbean Law I will take the principles because they apply. Other than that, thank you you've been so helpful.
