Reviews

'..a detailed survey of the main principles and rules of English commercial law that apply to management and business practices. The book will be especially useful for non-law students in UK business studies programmes and can also serve as an informative guide for company managers and small businesses'
-Dr Kern Alexander, The Judge Institute of Management, University of Cambridge, UK

'This book covers a wide rage of topics and should cover all topics offered on most business law courses. It is well organized and the topics are covered in sufficient breadth.  The writing style is good, concise and clear'
