Description

WELCOME TO BUSINESS LAW, SIXTH EDITION

New to the Sixth Edition
We are excited to bring you the sixth edition of this book. The previous edition was used in business law and legal environment of business courses throughout the nation. The changes made in the sixth edition are geared to better meet the needs of instructors and students. Four changes deserve specific mention:

Latest Legislative and Administrative Developments: As you might expect, over the past few years, the law in the United States and within the international community has evolved, and exciting dimensions of the business/law dynamic have developed. This edition also captures the latest developments in legislative (e.g., the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016) and administrative fronts.

Current Cases: The sixth edition includes recent U.S. Supreme Court decisions (several from 2017) as principal cases, along with new cases from other federal courts and various state courts.

More Graphical Presentations: A host of new tables, exhibits, and other visual depictions of important concepts are included in this new edition.

Reorganization of Uniform Commercial Code Materials: Recognizing that many law courses - particularly those aimed at accounting students - focus on the Uniform Commercial Code, the sixth edition presents Uniform Commercial Code (and related) chapters together.

We believe we have improved readability of this edition through a vigorous process of editing, in both content and grammar realms. The sixth edition continues our tradition of offering an expansive text that presents, in an interesting manner, the fascinating and ever-changing world of law within the business community. Welcome to the sixth edition!
