Description

Business law, being a reflection of a dynamic and progressive economy, always requires many new inclusions in each edition of A Guide to Business Law. This edition, probably more than any previous one, has seen major changes in many areas of business law and has been significantly revised and rewritten as a result. The content has also been broadened to have a more national focus, with references to all jurisdictions added for applicable laws in key areas. Case law and legislation have been updated throughout, including: the new national Australian Consumer Law; recent changes to Australian bankruptcy legislation, including the increases in prescribed amounts for income and assets; changes to securities over personal property introduced by the Personal Property Securities Act 2009 (Cth); a concise summary of the new industrial relations changes; and a more detailed examination of the role of the Civil Liability Acts. Features of the 19th edition include: New chapter - The National Australian Consumer Law regime / New chapter - Business Ethics / New appendix - providing compliance time limits in many areas of business law / Updated current media releases and references to key websites / Revised chapter summaries, mini-glossaries and update and new revision questions / Revised mentor content online to test and support student learning / Updated and new PowerPoint slides and answer guides to assist lecturers. A Guide to Business Law, 19th Edition will help lecturers, students and any other users alike to gain a better appreciation and understanding of the significant and wide-reaching changes affecting business and commercial law practice in Australia.
