Understand Securities Law

Marc I. Steinberg

Business

Mathew Bender

This book is a timely and useful supplement to such basic courses as Professional Responsibility, business enterprises, and even commercial law. It may also be assigned in such classes as securities regulation, business/corporate ethics, and inside counsel. Indeed, a course in ethics for the business attorney may adopt this book as its primary source. The book uses the problem method to provide a concrete mode of analysis. This method works nicely to bring reality to the scene and energize the students. Rather than discussing abstract issues in a vacuum, the problem method in this setting enables students to apply the book's materials to real situations. The book contains material devoted, for example, to the following subjects: 1) the role of the business lawyer; 2) identifying counsel's client; 3) client-fraud dilemmas; 4) conflicts of interest; 5) role of in-house counsel; 6) related party transactions; 7) internal investigations; and 8) basics of business practice.

Lexis&Nexis

This new book undertakes a traditional, and inclusive, approach to the law of business organizations. The volume includes materials many books now on the market omit, such as agency and unincorporated business associations, while at the same time maintaining a wide breadth of coverage. As such, the book permits professors to emphasize closely held and other non-public companies while at the same time offering the basics on public company law and practice. Along these lines, the book includes materials on securities offerings, registration, exemptions from registration, and lawyers' responsibilities under the securities laws. Features that make this book a strong teaching tool and a strong learning tool include: 
<li>Chapter introductions that summarize and highlight the overall and contextual importance of chapter contents (rather than merely list and categorize the parts of the chapter); </li>
<li>Basic corporate finance nomenclature and other information necessary to an understanding of transactional business law, including individual chapters on basic corporate finance, corporate changes and change of control transactions; </li>
<li>Materials allowing for a comparison of laws and practices in other countries with those of the United States in key areas of study; and </li>
<li>Well-selected notes and problems that permit the integration of concepts and foster application skills at key junctures. This single text allows for coverage of law, underlying theory and policy, and practice skills. In one volume, the book contains material sufficient to educate a young lawyer to function in general business law practice. The emphasis has been on creating a teaching resource that is comprehensive in the view of the five experienced business law teacher-practitioner authors.</li>
