ee Roach's Company Law is a thoroughly modern textbook, effortlessly engaging the student reader and leading them through the complexities of the law.
Focused on students, this account of company law is written with exceptional clarity. Supported with learning features, the core principles and doctrines are fully explained and explored, and consistently linked with fascinating, lively examples of the law in action.
