To supply the background law students need to succeed in business-related courses -- such as accounting, economics, real estate, tax, business organizations, and finance -- try the text known for its effectiveness, edition after edition. BUSINESS BASICS FOR LAW STUDENTS, Fourth Edition, explains the mechanics, concepts, and legal context of business topics in exceptionally clear and accessible language.

  • generous use of examples to convey ideas and applications
  • a helpful list of new terms in the appendix, conveniently keyed to the pages where they are used and explained
  • frequent use of visual aids, such as tax forms, financial quotes as they appear in the newspaper, tables, and graphs
  • an accessible design featuring lists of topics keyed to headings at the beginning of each chapter, key terms and concepts bolded for easy identification, and frequent use of lists to clearly enumerate points and examples
