About this title

From the Back Cover:

Alix Adams Law for Business Students is popular for explaining the law in a jargon-free, engaging style and exploring the law firmly within the business world in which it operates using real life examples.

 

The text follows a six-part structure, beginning with an introduction to the study of law for those new to the subject, and then outlines each major area of legal concern in business including contracts and sales, liability, employment, corporate organisation and intellectual property.

 

The ninth edition has been updated with over 30 new case references and full analysis of the Consumer Rights Act 2015, streamlining the law on sales contracts as well as relevant provisions of the Small Business Enterprise and Employment Act 2015.

 

Catering for a range of learning styles, Law for Business Students clearly outlines the main legal rules and cases. It uses business examples and topical news stories to reinforce understanding and demonstrate the practical application of the law. Key terms are explained in a margin note and a broad variety of end-of-chapter resources ensures that you understand the issues covered in the chapter and gives you an opportunity to apply your knowledge in questions and activities relating to each topic. The full-colour page design clearly identifies each learning feature to help you get the most out of your study.

 

Alix Adams has over 30 years’ experience of teaching law from GCSE to degree and postgraduate level and is a barrister.
