1.0 out of 5 stars Book Doesn't Follow Major Casebooks, January 11, 2012

This review is from: Questions and Answers: Business Associations (Paperback)

This book would ONLY be useful if a professor recommends it; it does not track any of the major business associations/corporations casebooks in the material it covers and questions that it asks. Be wary.

This review is from: Questions and Answers: Business Associations (Paperback)

the book was good for the material, but really this book only helps if your professor keys you to this material. My prof did not grade us on most, if not any, of this material covered in the book.
