Executive liability and the law

2nd ed.

by

"Executive Liability and the Law, 2nd Edition represents a new perspective on a topic that is of significance and relevance in the world of employment, corporate and commercial law. This comprehensive publication provides the reader not only all the relevant legislative provisions and case law in each subject area, these same provisions and case law are explained in the context of a theoretical framework that attempts to make sense of the various disparate strands of jurisprudential viewpoints that perplex practitioners and professors alike. This text goes beyond a mere summary of the law – it explains why the law is the way it is and where it is likely to go."--pub. desc.
