Review
This is still the best book on the market for the Business Law courses taught at my University.
The authors have selected Cases that are relevant and interesting. I appreciate the variety among the chapters and the appropriate length and depth of the cases. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Business Law-Smith and Roberson,
By Joseph S. Maresca "Dr. Joseph S. Maresca CPA,... (Bronxville, New York USA) - See all my reviews (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Smith and Roberson's Business Law (Smith & Roberson's Business Law) (Hardcover)
This book is well-organized and written. It covers the majorsubject areas for the CPA exam thoroughly. There is more than adequate treatment in the areas of contract law, sales transactions, agency, partnerships, corporate formation and the minor subject areas of the CPA examination. There is good coverage of legal foundations with ample exercises to develop the legal concepts presented. This work should be retained for use as a reference guide. In addition, it is easy to read and understand.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Smith and Roberson's Business Law (Hardcover)
This was my first time using Amazon.com and the experience was everything I hoped it would be. Very easy and fast to use. Buying textbooks can be so costly, and I scored my Business Law book for less then half price! It was classified as used, but was hardly that. Excellent service! Will use this website again.
