Decent Study Aid,
By
This review is from: Gilbert Law Summaries: Corporations (Paperback)
This is a very comprehensive guide to corporations, whixh deals with all the legal aspects of organizing, maintaiing, and regulating a corporation, including that elusive "piercing the corporate veil" concept. However, if you are using this for a business law exam study aid, you will need to supplement it. There is nary a word in it regarding agency or partnership, which any comprehensive business law survey course will most certainly touch on. If it had, I would have given it five stars. Just be warned when ordering--it isn't all there.

Great guide for the "Corporations" section in your Business Org Class,
By
This review is from: Corporations (Gilbert Law Summaries) (Paperback)
The other reviewer did not know about Gilber's Agency book that you would have to use in order to have a complete guide in understanding Business Org. I gave it a 5 star to help with the rating due to the other reviewer's failure do the extra amazon.com reseach in finding the other Gilbert (Agency) book. All in all, Gilbert did a great job of helping law students understand Business Org in all of its complexity.

Not organized for learning - very outline like,
By
This review is from: Corporations (Gilbert Law Summaries) (Paperback)
This may be a fairly comprehensive overview of corporate law - but it's just not structured well for learning. I prefer the Issues and Explanations series of books because they give you different 'real world' or at least some examples of how the different rules might interact with the real world. they help you think and practice what you just read. This book is just page after page of outlined summarized facts of corporate law. You can get other people's (ie law students') corporate law outlines off the internet and have pretty much the same thing. The book does have a few 'essay' questions, but they are pretty short and very simple. There is nothing in this book beyond that designed to help you learn. If you want to pay $$ for a lists of providing information - then this is book for you. I suggest though, save your $ on this one, get some free outlines and the Issues and Explanations book.
