Recognized for its reader-friendly presentation, current examples and engaging stories, Beatty/Samuelson/Abril's "Introduction to Business Law," 8th Edition, introduces students to principles of business law. The authors cover topics of interest to students such as cryptocurrency, social media influencers and the gig economy. Because the authors practiced law, they can clearly explain both theory and how legal concepts actually work in everyday business practice (e.g. the difference between the theory of corporate governance and its reality). Respected scholars, the authors apply their understanding of legal and business practices to predict and address emerging legal trends and issues.
