Introduction to Business Law

This text is well written and easy to understand. The interactive case examples given in the text were very helpful for me to understand and put into immediate practice critical reasoning skills of the terms as well as the variuos processes. Because of my very busy schedule, I found the way the text is laid out to be user friendly. By that I mean section headings are clear, concise write ups, bold definitions or explanations, and side-bar terms for quick reference. The diagrams are also helpful to be able to follow the their explanations visually. For example: which court can do what, which branches of government are over what and what laws do they oversee and effect. The interactive student website for the text is helpful and user friendly for testing your understanding and retention.
