I'm a law student and a big Nutshell fan. This is definitely one of the best Nutshells in the series. It's clear, it's organized, and it covers a broad array of issues in corporate governance and operation. I think it would make a better text than the bulky casebooks we're forced to carry around. It's a must-have for law students, aspiring corporate lawyers, and anyone needing a quick reference on general corporate law.

As a foreigner to study law in the U.S.,I find it very difficult
for me to comprehend what the casebooks are trying to express.
I was suggested to search for the nutshell related to the Robert W. Hamilton's thick,heavy and hard-to-understand casebook on Corporations here at Amazon. After I browsed through the introduction of this little book, I found it very concise in expression and easy to catch the points. I consider it a great aid for those who find it hard to study the Hamilton's casebook.

This is a very good primer on the subject. Highly recommend for going from 0 to 35mph on the subject fairly quickly and painlessly.

The substance of the book is great. It explains the law of corporations very well in clear language. It is not a quick summary like the Gilbert's series, but is much better are helping to gain a solid understanding. However, it is full of typos and grammatical errors which sometimes cause you to be confused about what they are really trying to say. I am shocked that West would let this book publish with these blatant errors in the book. It a shame as I would have given it 5 stars had it not been for these mistakes.

I bought this book to use in studying for my corporate law class, and it has been incredibly helpful so far! I wish it had a few more cases in it that we discuss in class, but this book does a great job. It's making outlining 10 times easier.

it is good condition and shipping speed is very fast, I like this book, but if I knew this book is not the newest version, maybe I won't buy it, but anyway, it is a good book.

This book offers an excelent summary of Corporations. It has an easy vocabulary and it is very well organized. However, it does not have any margins. In short, I really recommend it as a second source to improve your studies of Corporate Law.

This is a very detailed book and in my opinion is not for you unless you have a bit of a background in Law.
