Not bad but...

Book wasn't bad in terms of black letter corporate law. However, it runs into the same problem as most hornbooks I've read. Namely, individual professors teach the subject matter differently with emphasis on different things and different topics covered. As a result the black letter law books are often hit or miss as to whether they cover the topics you covered, and if they do whether or not they do it with the same depth or emphasis as your professor. The same is true of this book. Can't really blame it for being what it is, but take it as a word of warning for all hornbooks. I imagine I'll be using this book much more for the Bar than I will for my corporations class.

great supplement

I highly recommend this book to any law or business student who is trying to figure out the complicated web of business entities - corporations, LLC's, partnerships, etc. This book also stands alone as a guide to anyone not taking a course. I recommend it to anyone starting a company or becoming a partner or member of a business entity. It could save you thousands of dollars down the road if you know your rights and risks involved.
