A Student's Guide to Business Law marks a shift in undergraduate business law education. It leaves behind the esoteric legalese and convoluted legal minutia of previous textbooks that confuses students and leaves the material inaccessible. This textbook uses a simplified, practical approach to foster students' comprehension of the legal environment of business. By focusing on general rules and using straight-forward explanations, A Student's Guide to Business Law delivers legal concepts through comprehensible pieces appropriate for undergraduate business students. Consisting of 13 chapters, this textbook has been specifically designed to be completed in one semester. Additionally, rather than using examples from a bygone era that require additional instructor explanation, A Student's Guide to Business Law uses modern cases and examples throughout the text to provide a meaningful, relatable context for today's business law students. The material explored in this textbook also includes business ethics and is intended to provide students with multiple frameworks from which to understand ethical issues and make sound ethical decisions. Similar to the rest of the textbook, the topic of business ethics is approached in an understandable, pragmatic way and uses multiple real-life examples to provide context for students. The third edition has been updated with new cases, tables, and figures. Additionally, online material has been added to provide students with multiple means and perspectives to aid in their understanding of the material.
