3.0 out of 5 stars
Comprehensive, but unbelievably out of date.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Corporations (The Emanuel Law Outlines Series) (Paperback)
This book simplifies corporations law and gives concrete examples and good summaries.However, be aware that the book is in many places completely out of date and cites sections of statutes that were changed 12 years ago (even though this edition was published in 2002). You'll have to check constantly in your statutory supplement and in your case book to make sure that what you're reading is up-to-date. It's hard to understand, really, how an author could fail to update sections of a book over such a long period especially an author with a law degree who is, therefore, giving outdated legal advice). That all being said, the meat of the book is well done.

5.0 out of 5 stars
excellent supplement,
This review is from: Emanuel Law Outlines: Corporations (Paperback)
This supplement clearly describes all the major topics covered in a corporate law class. I found it especially helpful in distinguishing between duty of loyalty/conflict of interest issues and duty of care/business judgment rule situations. All the rules are clearly laid out and show the reader when the various tests should be applied. If you are overwhelmed by the large amount of information you're expected to master in a BA/corporations course, this supplement will help you organize that information and give you some perspective on how to manage all the info you're expected to know.I highly recommend this book. Also, in case it's not obvious, there's nothing on agency and partnership.

Really helpful,

This review is from: Emanuel Law Outlines: Corporations (Paperback)
I thought that this was a clear as well as very comprehensive study guide that included everything I needed. I primarily used the study guide to clear up areas that confused me as well as to add in missing pieces to my outline based on class notes, and it was great for that. I generally don't find commercial outlines to be that helpful, but this was an exception.
