Appropriate for one-semester courses in Business Law at both college and university levels in Alberta.

This Alberta-specific text proceeds beyond general principles of law and describes the case law and particular statutory provisions that regulate business in Alberta. Legal concepts and Canadian business applications are introduced in a concise, one-semester format. The text is structured so that five chapters on contracts form the nucleus of the course, and the balance provides stand-alone sections that the instructor may choose to cover in any order. The design is more reader-friendly, with a visually-appealing four-colour format as well as case synopses and extracts to enliven the solid text. The result is a book that maintains the strong legal content of previous editions while introducing more real-life examples of business law in practice.
