Company law: Fundamental principles

Griffin, Stephen

Financial Times/Prentice Hall

This work offers a guide for students, lawyers and accountants who need to understand the modern principles and realities of company law without the clutter of legal jargon. The creation, existence and regulation of companies is a complicated legal area and touches on many different aspects of the law, but the prime purpose of this regulation is to promote fair and legal trade and enterprise. There are also important differences between England and Wales, and Scotland and Northern Ireland. To understand how a company operates - separately from its shareholders or members - it is important to understand why the regulations exist. This is the approach adopted by the author to explain the practicalities of company law.

Although the law recognizes and vigorously defends the separate legal identity of the corporate entity, legislative provisions have been enacted to protect the interests of corporate creditors whereby in circumstances where the company's affairs have been mismanaged to the extent that the company has become insolvent, the directors themselves may: (a) be subject to liability to contribute to, or in some instances, completely discharge the debts of the company, and (b) for the protection of the public interest be subject to disqualification proceedings under the Company Director Disqualification Act 1986, which, if successful, will prevent them from participation in the future management of a company.

Ken Dodd: The Biography

For more than sixty years Ken Dodd discomknockerated audiences in packed venues across Britain with his unique blend of madcap humour. Despite his advancing years he continued to perform his legendary five-hour sets to his adoring fans: his final tour, Ken Dodd's Happiness Show, still delighted audiences in his ninetieth year.
This fascinating biography - based on interviews with friends, colleagues and fellow comedians - uncovers the man behind the performer, the man who lived in his childhood home in Knotty Ash throughout his entire life, never leaving the roots that meant so much to him. What drove this extraordinary man? What was the truth behind his strange relationship with money? How did this feather-duster salesman from Liverpool become one of the greatest, though least-lauded, comic geniuses of his generation?
Affectionate, enlightening and entertaining, this biography is a fitting tribute to a remarkable man.
