Description

Fully updated to reflect the latest developments in business law, this engaging and accessible casebook for a Business Associations or Corporations course takes a modern approach that has made it a classroom favorite. The text includes full chapters on agency, partnerships, and LLCs for professors who cover those topics, along with foundational material on accounting, valuation, and capital structure. Key topics for deeper discussion, including the evolving debate over corporate purpose, are given careful and balanced attention. Chapters on fiduciary duties, controlling shareholders, information rights, and M&A have been thoroughly revised to incorporate Delaware's statutory amendments, recent case law, Model Business Corporation Act updates, and the rising competition among states for corporate charters. Throughout, explanatory breakout boxes and thought-provoking points for discussion prepare students for lively classroom conversation.
