One of the above reviewers was actually commenting on his seller/shipper and not the book itself. The other was highly negative about the book. First, the reality of the world is that law school casebooks are not intended as Nobel-prize winning novels: (1) they are not easy reading and (2) they are meant to be paired with class lectures, not as stand-alones.

This casebook is highly lucid and provides a great overview of each area or "phase" of the securities regulation "process" from the definition of a security to the prospectus requirement (and exceptions) and everything in between, including portions of Sarbanes-Oxley. If you're taking SecReg (as one might affectionately call it), you won't regret that your professor chose this casebook.

I received my book and it was like new! I believe I saved about 50 dollars as opposed to buying directly from the bookstore! There was no highlighting and as an added bonus I received my book from this seller much sooner than anticipated! Over all I was very happy both with the product and the entire sales experience.

Authors don't appear to have passed grade school level grammar classes. Extended rants on subjects later deemed irrelevant. Topics not organized in any coherent way: something will be discussed in detail only to be revisited with painful repetition 100+ pages later. Topics poorly, if ever, explained without reference to statutory text. You're better off reading the '33 and '34 Act provisions online instead of wasting your life reading 800 pages of this drivel.

The book came quickly, there was a ton of highlighting in it but overall in good condition! Thanks
