Cengage Advantage Books: Essentials Of The Legal Environment Today (Miller Business Law Today Family)

Current, succinct, and straightforward, ESSENTIALS OF THE LEGAL ENVIRONMENT, 5E uses a nontechnical approach to deliver complete one-semester coverage of business law and its environment. Cases are summarized by the authors and integrated throughout chapters. Miller explains legal issues and court decisions with minimal legal jargon. Hands-on applications help students strengthen their critical thinking skills as well as think through ethical dilemmas before they confront them in the workplace. The book also explores how traditional law has been applied to issues involving the Internet and how the laws of other nations deal with topics discussed in the text. In addition to Cases and Case Problems featuring issues from legal disputes in 2013 and 2014, the fifth edition includes an all-new chapter on Internet Law, Social Media, and Privacy, new Managerial Strategy features, new Preventing Legal Disputes features, and more.

I loved this book for the business law class I had to take. I actually read every chapter, as I was supposed to. The way it is written, I was really able to follow along and understand what I was reading. Most of the case studies are pretty well known cases, so it makes it more interesting to read about things that you may already know about.

I rented this book and the condition wasn't great when it arrived. It's clearly used, which is understandable, but still unsatisfying. However, the book content is well written, and easy enough to follow. You may get a bit overwhelmed at times, simply because there is a lot of information to take in, but just remember to pace yourself.

Actually a quite interesting book. Got it for a class and well worth the rental. No need to write or highlight much because concepts are very clear.

I sent back the book cause I needed a special version with internet access ! But the book itself was not damaged
