Sophisticated yet accessible, Corporations and Other Business Associations: Cases and Materials balances economic and legal theory with a flexible organization, popular case selection, and engaging problems. Current users will recognize a familiar format with creative updates. New users will recognize a casebook easily adaptable for use in a typical Corporations or Business Associations course, ranging in length from three to five credit hours, and providing ample material from which an instructor may choose how much emphasis to give to particular topics (and with substantial resources for teaching, including a detailed teacher’s manual and class slides). The 10th edition fully incorporates the recent spate of controversial Delaware judicial decisions and legislation occurring in 2023, 2024, and the first quarter of 2025.
