Instructor's Manual
This supplement has four dimensions. The first aspect of the Instructor Manual presents an overview of the chapter, addressing the major points covered in the chapter. Then a comprehensive outline of the chapter is presented. The outline is drawn from the chapter, with special attention paid to particularly important definitions and concepts. A case synopsis for each featured case in the chapter is an integral part of the outline. Third, sample answers to chapter questions and problems are included. Each chapter of the text has ten questions, usually one matching question followed by nine essay problems. The Instructor Manual presents answers to the matching question (which normally consists of ten terms and ten definitions). In addition, short answers to the essay problems – along with a citation to the section or sections in the chapter where the subject of the problem is addressed – provide the instructor with a sense of how to frame the essay problem. Finally, the Instructor Manual includes a list of additional resources the instructor might find helpful in reviewing the materials covered in the chapter. These resources include either hardbound books or digital material from the Internet.

Description

Welcome to Business Law. We believe this text is worthy of the trust you have placed in us to deliver contemporary aspects of business law in a comprehensive manner appropriate for a variety of learning styles. This book is based on a textbook, written by co-authors Peter Shedd and Robert Corley, that has enjoyed strong popularity in university and college classrooms for decades. Business Law has benefited from the expertise and experience of author James Morgan, who joins this well-established team of authors, to further update and refine the content. Upon this strong and tested foundation, we have created Business Law, which not only presents traditional principles of business law but also delves into new arenas pertaining to the interaction of law and business that are relevant for business leaders of the twenty-first century.
