Useful for lawyers who need to learn about business, Jun 2 2000

This review is from: Business Basics for Law Students: Essential Terms and Concepts (Paperback)
BUSINESS BASICS is a very comprehensive overview of business issues designed for law students and lawyers. Students taking a basic course in corporations or business associations will find it useful, especially if they lack a business background. It covers not only corporate law, but also such broader topics as insurance, retirement planning, real estate purchases, and the like. Relatively little traditional doctrinal analysis; more an explanation of how business works. Don't think of it as a study aid for your corporations class-think of it as a one volume equivalent of an undergraduate business administration program. On that basis, I highly recommend it.

Basic But Good Coverage, Aug 11 2005

This review is from: Business Basics for Law Students: Essential Concepts and Applications (Paperback)
The book may be a bit basic for anyone with a business background. But it is a good overview for a lot of topics and business basics that most law students will cover at some point or another during law school.
