Book Description

March 14, 2003 0324153554 978-0324153552 1
This first edition, written by the same authors of the Anderson family of texts, re-positions Anderson's Business Law of the Regulatory Environment by incorporating all relevant UCC Sections into the text. As the new incarnation of Anderson, this book retains the tradition of accuracy, depth and contemporary perspective. Its cases are excerpted, relevant and interesting. The UCC coverage provides the student with the code language when reading applicable portions of the text. This text meets AACSB requirements and offers complete coverage for CPA preparation, featuring ethics, public policy and the Internet.

Editorial Reviews

Review

The use of 'outline' and 'objectives' at the beginning of each chapter helps to focus for the reader the balance of the chapter.

The law is made relevant when the student sees the application in their life. The text provides the basic connection between law and business.

I got this book on the LOW from Amazon for about 20 bucks used. It was in Like New condition I believe. It was very beneficial in my class. The instructor informed us that there was not much difference in the 2nd and 3rd editions I believe . It is also beneficial as a reference text. There are a lot of vocabulary and it is very easy to understand. GOOD BOOK GOOD PRICE
