Business Law, 7th Edition

Designed specifically for business students, James’ Business Law, 7th Edition provides a comprehensive introduction to the fundamentals of business law. Tailored to accommodate the initial encounter with legal principles for business students, this textbook offers a clear and accessible pathway into the realm of law. Unlike traditional texts from leading legal publishers, Business Law, 7th Edition prioritizes a practical approach, emphasizing real-world applications over doctrinal intricacies. By demystifying complex legal concepts and presenting them within a business-oriented framework, this textbook equips students with the necessary foundation to navigate the legal landscape with confidence. 

Features

  • Practical & Contextual Learning – “Law in Context” boxes offer practical illustrations of legal principles within business operations.

  • Case Law Coverage – Case Law is interwoven throughout the text, enriching understanding through real-world examples.
