Von der hinteren Coverseite

This book is comprehensive in coverage and provides a well rounded introduction to business law. It is clearly written and likely to become a 'must have' text for all business law students.

Indira Carr, Professor of Law at the University of Surrey

Business Law, now in its ninth edition, is a manageable, well trusted and reliable text specifically designed for non-law students studying law for the first time. Maintaining the direct and accessible approach which has made this book so popular, Riches and Allen provide user-friendly explanations of the law in a highly practical and engaging style immediately equipping you with a good understanding of key legal concepts. 

.

Now thoroughly revised and updated, the new edition includes key changes to the law on:

• The Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008
• Companies Act 2006
• The Employment Equality (Age) Regulations 2006 Amendment Regulations 2008

The coverage of tort law has also been expanded and restructured in this edition to better match how the topic is covered on business law courses. 

The new text design and handy cross-references allow you to find the information you need quickly and easily while the use of extensive cases and diagrams make sometimes complex points in the law easier to understand.  Learning aids popular in previous editions have been retained and include:

• Learning objectives highlight key points you should understand as you progress through each chapter
• Self test questions allow you to assess for yourself whether your knowledge is up to scratch
• Case summaries are included throughout to give you the key facts, legal principle and context underlying important cases.
• End of chapterspecimen examination questions provide valuable examples of the typical types of question you may face in an exam enabling you to better prepare for assessments
