Business Organizations Law and Policy: Materials and Problems
This title is a part of our CasebookPlus™ offering as ISBN 9781636597522. Learn more at

The Tenth Edition continues the basic approach of its predecessors: using problems as a vehicle for discussing cases and textual material to develop an understanding of the law of business enterprises and the policy issues that influence its evolution. The new edition continues to develop sophisticated materials on noncorporate business entities, and it adds significant new cases and commentary on new developments in law including Delaware cases on information rights, shareholder litigation, and the Caremark doctrine. The commentary has been updated for new developments including discussion of the role of corporations in society and the influence of and trends in shareholder proposals. It also made modest organizational changes that streamline the sequential delivery of important lessons.

Anchored by faculty-authored formative self-assessments keyed to our most popular casebooks, CasebookPlus allows students to test their understanding of core concepts as they are learning them in class – on their own, outside of the classroom, with no extra work on your part.

- Subject area review questions for end of semester use
Leading digital study aids, an outline starter, and audio lectures in select subjects
Students can still utilize CasebookPlus digital resources if they’ve purchased a used book or are renting their text by purchasing the Learning Library at westacademic.com.
With CasebookPlus, you can customize your students’ learning experience and monitor their performance. The quiz editor allows you to create your own custom quiz set, suppress specific quiz questions or quiz sets, and time-release quiz questions. Additionally, the flexible, customized reporting capability helps you evaluate your students’ understanding of the material and can also help your school demonstrate compliance with the new ABA Assessment and Learning Outcomes standards.
In addition to the usual updates to take into account new developments including changes and additions to Delaware doctrines of demand futility and good faith compliance with legal regulations, the Tenth Edition made modest reorganization to the book structure. Chapters on the shareholders’ role in governance and disclosure duties to shareholders have been consolidated into a new chapter on the shareholders’ role in corporate governance on the view that disclosure duties are critical to the exercise of shareholders’ role in governance including the exercise of voting rights. Also, the chapter on mergers and acquisitions has been moved up to precede the discussion of fiduciary duties of directors, officers, and controlling shareholders because so much of this law is arises from the context of mergers and acquisitions transactions.
