I really like it how its a lot thinner and lighter than the older version. I have to carry lots of books up the hill to classes so i'm thankful for light books. The content is very good, not much different from the newer edition after this one. Very good for people who don't understand law. It lays good basic grounds.

Book was required for school. Very detailed on the legal environment of business and business law. I kept it because, who knows, it might come in handy some day :)
