Description
For undergraduate courses in the Legal Environment of Business.
The single most up-to-date text available for the Legal Environment course.
The Legal Environment of Business and Online Commerce, 6e examines how the current legal environment, government regulation, and e-commerce environment impact today's business decisions. The cases in this text are cutting-edge, exciting, and engaging, and the reasoning of each case is presented in the language of the court.
The sixth edition focuses on presenting the legal environment and ethics in a way that will spur students to ask questions and go beyond basic memorization. And, in an effort to achieve greater clarity and brevity, this edition has combined some of its topics and chapters, and decreased the depth of some coverage, resulting in a text that's shorter in length with a reduced number of chapters and parts.
