This review is from: Business Research Handbook (Ring-bound)
The Business Research Handbook (Methods and Sources for Lawyers and Business Professionals) by Kathy Shimpock is a must buy. This noted author and lecturer has taken a very difficult subject - retrieving business factual information - but immensely valuable one and simplified it for legal professionals. This book covers basic research strategies, research tools, and how to retrieve information from libraries, government agencies, corporations, associations and a host of other organizations. Information can be located in areas such as accounting, economics, finance, management, marketing and insurance, retrieving government publications, corporate information, expert witness location and background research and a private company profile. Over the last 15 years we have observed and experienced an information communication revolution. As the Internet and other electronic sources continue their phenomenal growth it has become the first stop for legal researchers in collecting factual information. The foundation of this revolution is the fact that most information is available electronically today through the Internet, online databases or CD-ROM (soon DVD). However, one still must know how and where to look for this information. Knowledge derived from such information is indispensable in the practice of law. The uses for this information are endless. It can be used to counsel clients, for your opening and closing arguments, for counseling information for sentencing hearings, doing background research on a potential client, adverse party or employer or preparing for cross-examination of expert witnesses. The uses are only limited by the needs of your clients. If you are interested in an exhaustive, authoritative book that directs you to factual sources important to your practice and clients buy this one. Finding online nonlegal information is a must for lawyers as we transition into the new millenium. This book will start you down this valuable path.
