Developments in Business Law and Policy focuses on fundamental principles of law, adding information on practical and theoretical perspectives and policy to the subject. The book begins with a discussion of agency law, which is a bedrock subject for students in business law courses. The topic is made fresh and interesting through exploration of current, topical developments such as those pertaining to the Disney case in Delaware. This is followed by two subsequent foundational chapters discussing the choice of enterprise forms and shareholder agreements. Whether or not a student intends to become an entrepreneur, these subjects are critical to knowing the ins and outs of entering into a business. The material in Developments in Business Law and Policy is organized in a provocative manner that brings real world examples to the classroom. Later chapters address important and timely subjects including corporate governance, veil piercing, director and officer duties, mergers and acquisitions, and insider trading. The book concludes with a policy analysis of where regulation failed in the Madoff financial scandal. Each chapter focuses on a scenario that highlights the practical and policy issues covered in the chapter. The inclusion of recent high-profile cases and issues makes the book interesting and appealing to both students and professors. Developments in Business Law and Policy is written primarily for undergraduate business law courses and MBA courses on the subject. It is also an excellent supplementary text for use in law schools.
