Synopsis:

Using an innovative storytelling style that brings cases and legal concepts to life, INTRODUCTION TO BUSINESS LAW, 5E presents a full range of business law topics in a series of brief, quick-reading chapters. The text delivers succinct coverage of core business law topics and includes summarized cases instead of case examples to illustrate the point of law. Emphasizing the business applications of chapter concepts, it helps you see the relevance of legal issues to your own future career path. The fifth edition also includes all-new chapters on LLCs and employment discrimination, new Case Questions, and a new emphasis on social media issues throughout.
