This edition of the increasingly popular casebook retains the two organizing themes of the first edition: that an underlying theory of the corporation is necessary to resolve any difficult questions in corporate law and that those difficult questions revolve around the tension between fiduciary obligation and contract principles that form the basis of corporate law. A teacher's manual is available.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Sophisticated yet accessible,
By A Customer
This review is from: Corporate Finance and Governance: Cases, Materials, and Problems for an Advanced Course in Corporations (Law Casebook Series) (Paperback)
This is an accessible, sophisticated, and multi-faceted introduction to the law and economics of corporate finance. The book subtly and persuasively connects themes of corporate finance to themes of greater social policy.

Poorly written - opinionated - disorganized,
By Studentt "st" (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Corporate Finance and Governance: Cases, Materials, and Problems for an Advanced Course in Corporations (Law Casebook Series) (Paperback)
Prof. Mitchell's casebook is a waste of money. The book doesn't teach you corporate law, as it should. Instead it teaches you what corporate law SHOULD be, according to Mitchell. The book contains cases inappropriate to the subject matter for which it is included - cases you won't find in any other corporate law text book.
The chapters are disorganized and subjects are dissected and scattered. The book entirely ignores statutes. I had Mitchell as a professor at GW Law School, and was forced to read his terrible book. I've learned absolutely nothing about Corporations in this class.
