This text is a briefer paperback version of the widely-adopted Miller/Jentz BUSINESS LAW TODAY: THE STANDARD EDITION. THE ESSENTIALS offers the very same traits that have made that book so successful edition after edition – fundamentally that it provides the legal credibility and authoritativeness of a traditional business law book, while also offering the visual appeal and student friendly features students are used to seeing in books for many of their other courses. Though the text is “fun” for students to read, it does not accomplish this at the expense of important information – it goes into the necessary detail to completely explain law topics. The book truly offers an instructor the best of both worlds – a credible business law source, which students will be motivated to read. Its magic and the cornerstone of its widespread success is in this ability to appeal to both instructors and students without being mutually exclusive. It also offers the most comprehensive teaching and learning support package on the market, with something to fit many different instructional or learning styles – a reflection of West Legal Studies in Business’s ongoing commitment to partnership, leadership, and innovation in providing the highest quality materials available for Business Law instructors and students. This text explicitly meets the AACSB curriculum requirements.

Right up the middle,
By 8bitPunk (Riverside, Ca USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Business Law Today: The Essentials- Text Only (Paperback)
The price was good, but alot of the chapters are in a different order than the professor's book (this probably due to "The Essentials" sub-title). I had to skip around to know what the professor was talking about, and sometimes the professor's chapters would cover in one chapter, what this book would spread over two. This made it difficult to do the "chapter questions assignments" my professor gave.
Luckily, I had a professor that was kind and was willing to work around my not-up-to-par book. The book itself is great, but if I had to do it again, I would try to find the exact textbook so I could avoid headaches and hassle whan the professor stated; "We will be testing on chapters 7,8, and 9 next week." When according to this book I was supposed to be studying chapters; 13, 14, 16, 18 e.t.c.

This review is from: Business Law Today: The Essentials- Text Only (Paperback)
This text is great for student's use, but a more in-depth approach look to the West's Business Law texts, they are much more comprehensive.

The book was in great conditions (even better than what I had expected from reading the description!). It included the Online Research Guide, which many other sellers did not include. Very fast shipping. Thank you, Jill!!!
