In the modern business world, no skill is more important than the ability to operate a business legally and ethically. Failure to meet the legal and ethical expectations of society and government can be disastrous for both firms and individuals in America's market-based economic system.The purpose of this text, which has been continually updated since its initial publication more than thirty years ago, is to enable students to navigate the modern business world in which illegal or unethical actions have "bet the company" consequences. The book covers all major business law subject matter areas, including contract law, intellectual property law, employment law, tort law, securities law, and products liability law. Moreover, new chapters on business ethics will assist students in making the right decisions in a complex world.
