Business law and the legal environment, standard edition 5e jeffrey f. Samuelson instructor manual. Generally, the letter and spirit of the law are well explained and, through the end-of-chapter exercises, students are encouraged to apply their knowledge to real-life situations.
Unfortunately, the text does not feature a glossary of legal terms. Explanations of the principles of law were accurate. Consequently, it offers a solid foundational education for a survey course. The efficacy of this course could be maintained by an instructor's assignment to investigate a contemporary state statute or by directing students to the Oyez Project at Chicago-Kent; it is a multimedia archive devoted to the Supreme Court of the United States and its work.
It aims to be a complete and authoritative source for all audio recorded in the Court since the installation of a recording system in October The Project also provides authoritative information on all justices and offers a virtual reality tour of portions of the Supreme Court building, including the chambers of some of the justices.
The cited case law serves the basic purpose of a first-level survey course: it provides an historical context and tracks the consistency of or changes made up to the early 21st Century. But, again, instructors will need to update the law with contemporary cases and statutes. For example, while the content on Alternative Dispute Resolution Chapter 3 clearly delineates the options available there is no reference to the Supreme Court ruling that companies can use arbitration clauses in employment contracts to prohibit workers from banding together to take legal action over workplace issues — an important business law issue!
The text will easily guide a layperson through a survey of the law. However, by the end of the chapter, a student may be overwhelmed by this first introduction to the language of law. The text would be easily and readily divisible to focus on a particular course of study on the discrete aspects of business law that can be reasonably studied in a 16 or fewer week course of study. Students are first introduced to the organizational structure of the U.
They are then well positioned to understand the confines of and freedoms available for the application of the law. I would, however, realign two topics: Agency Chapters should be immediately followed by Employment Law Chapters as the latter is a natural subset of the former. Also, Chapter 53, Contracts, replicates the comprehensive devotion of 12 earlier chapters to contract law and the UCC Chapters Technically, there were no problems with the links and the charts were clear.
However, the learning experience would be significantly enhanced by the addition of more detailed charts summarizing the narrative. Generally, the presentation of law is inclusive, particularly with the introductory worldwide examples of legal and political systems, and inoffensive. There is, however, some bias in the historical review of civil rights law Chapter The text is comprehensive and covers the broad topic of business law. Only one area would require supplementation for my course, that is professional responsibility and ethics, and typically the area of "Accountant's legal liability" As the Only one area would require supplementation for my course, that is professional responsibility and ethics, and typically the area of "Accountant's legal liability" As the course targets accounting students with the intent of taking the CPA exam, a section of accountant's legal liability and professional ethics would require supplementation.
As most business law books on the market do not include this, I think it is fair to state the book is comprehensive and comparable to most texts available for our students through the various publishers. Text was accurate and I did not find it to be biased.
Any errors were minimal, i. I am reviewing in , the copyright is It did not seem dated or lacking in content, but I do wonder when it might be updated. Many great examples were given, the points were made quickly and succinctly. Law books necessarily contain a lot of jargon, but it was well explained in laymen's terms.
The book was consistent in terminology and framework; , and authors were able to get major points across without excessive wording on a consistent basis. Book feels like it can be assembled in a different order and without inclusion of all chapters to meet my needs in the course I would consider this book for.
Topics are presented in a typical order for business law. The flow is clear and logical and well organized. The text is free of distortion. I think more visual stimulation in various forms might be good for a dry topic like business law. It gets the job done, however. I was pleasantly surprised to find an open textbook that was worthy of adoption for a business law class in our School of Management.
I had been skeptical about the quality of open texts, but was surprised to find materials that could be used and would save students a great deal of money. It was on par with many of the expensive texts that I have used in the past or used in a supplemental fashion for my level class. I commend the authors for their hard work and commitment to creating an open textbook. I do think that the book would benefit from some form of visual design to be more stimulating.
This is a topic that is not a real "page turner" and getting students to read is a challenge. I would like to experiment and see if students can see the value of the open text. I will need to see how I as a faculty can deal with the ancillaries or without the ancillaries that I am used to having with typical publisher textbooks.
The book provides an extensive overview of many if not most of the relevant issues that would arise in the business law context. In fact, due to the comprehensive nature of the book, some of the chapters may in fact be redundant and could be In fact, due to the comprehensive nature of the book, some of the chapters may in fact be redundant and could be streamlined for instance, many of the issues that arise in Chapters relating to agreements, assent and, consideration, could also be covered within the context of Chapter 53 — Contracts.
One drawback is that the textbook does not appear to have an index of any kind, which could be a significant drawback, particularly for those students who have no prior familiarity with either business or legal issues. Perhaps, in the future, the authors would consider maintaining the key terms but then hyperlinking those terms back to a glossary or vice versa.
The book also seems to place the right amount of emphasis on the subjects that business students would encounter more in their field — so there is a significant amount of information on corporate law and less information devoted to criminal law. Although I am not an expert on every aspect of the legal environment, it seems that all of the information presented is accurate.
In those areas in which I have a specific expertise business and securities laws the information seems to be error-fee and accurate. In addition, the information was presented in an objective way with no errors detected.
One thing that I would like the book to have included more often is relevant discussions regarding the ethics of a particular situation. While the book does include a chapter on ethics as well as having small discussion of ethics within some of the chapters given the relevance of ethics to the average business graduate, I would have liked to have seen more ethics discussion relating back to that foundational chapter in each of the sections — as well as more self-test and exercises that cover them.
The book seems largely relevant. The challenge in a textbook of this magnitude is that the law, as a dynamic entity changes very quickly.
For instance, in the chapter on securities regulation, there have been significant developments in the areas of crowdfunding that would be of particular interest to business students. Since these occurred after , the book does not mention those. Similarly, there have been a big development in the law regarding hybrid businesses — specifically with the rise of benefit corporations and, to a lesser extent LC3s.
The book mentions neither of these developments although these were occurring during the original date of publication. As such, a select update for certain aspects rather than a complete new edition would be recommended. The tone of the book is perfect for the type of student that will be using it. The writing is clear. Complicated, technical concepts are explained in such a way that even those students with little background or familiarity can cover the information.
The hyperlink to glossary terms and definitions adds to the clarity although it is unclear whether that feature would also be available in the PDF version and allows readers to familiarize themselves with concepts without disrupting the overall flows of the book. The text is internally consistent in terms of terminology and framework. The same format is used throughout- for instance the sections are organized the same way.
Exercises and self-tests are also consistent throughout. The textbook does an excellent job of allowing the different sections to be mixed and matched in a way that helps instructors.
In addition, the sections within a chapter are presented in such a way that is not overwhelming for the reader. The organization of the book is generally easy to understand.
It is confusing that there are two separate sections with several chapters in between that both discuss contracts. This could easily have rectified by the authors by moving contracts topics all to the same section or for the instructor by assigning those chapters all at the same time.
The interface is largely appropriate for a book presented in this medium. All charts and textbox are clear and undistorted. The textbook authors have hyperlinks to appropriate forms, terms and organizations.
They also include self-tests that benefit the students. Given the digital medium of the book, I do feel that there were other opportunities that the authors could have taken advantage of for the benefit of the student for instance, by having more interactive components — perhaps with the self-tests or the learning objectives however, the content and method of interface as it stands now is perfectly adequate.
The book is written in a culturally relevant and sensitive way. For instance, the authors, when discussing separatist issues in the chapter on international law use examples from North America whereas many other resources would use examples from less develop countries.
The exercises presented in the book seem to be presented in a largely cultural neutral way in that the authors discuss hypotheticals using many different gender roles, geographical locations and ethnic appellations — showing the diversity that is present in business and law issues.
I think the book does an excellent job of presenting the material related to business students and the law in a clear and comprehensive fashion. I would consider adopting this book for my students. Our goal is to provide students with a textbook that is up to date and comprehensive in its coverage of legal and regulatory issues—and organized to permit instructors to tailor the materials to their particular approach.
This book engages students by relating law to everyday events with which they are already familiar or with which they are familiarizing themselves in other business courses and by its clear, concise, and readable style.
This textbook provides context and essential concepts across the entire range of legal issues with which managers and business executives must grapple. The text provides the vocabulary and legal acumen necessary for businesspeople to talk in an educated way to their customers, employees, suppliers, government officials—and to their own lawyers.
