VERY Useful and Clear -- and Excellent

I taught out of this text for several years. It's excellent. The materials are sensibly organized; the writing is clear without being juvenile; and the legal analysis is flawless.Students respond well to the book.This is one of the best texts that I've ever used in any class, and it's certainly the best text that I've found for teaching business law to non-law students.
