With the prior edition of this concise, up-to-date casebook having been adopted at over 100 law schools, the tenth edition preserves the authors' tradition of providing a comprehensive overview of agency, partnership, and corporation law.

Great facts or a clever analysis are always given first priority in case selection. Product details Format ...
