Book Description
A number of changes in this edition reflect new developments such as changes in many large law firms due to major increases in entry level salaries for associates; important revisions in the Model Business Corporation Act; recent developments in asset-protection of limited liability companies; two important decisions in Delaware on the duties and liabilities of directors of publicly held companies; the enactment of the Securities Litigation Uniform Securities Act (SLUSA); the adoption of new regulations, Rule 10b-5-1 and 10b-5-2; and adoption of new regulations relating to full disclosure by registered publicly held companies (Regulation FD) and the independence of auditors.
Customer Reviews:
Great purchase experience - no problems!.......2007-01-21
The text was as described with no issues. The delivery was prompt and handled in a professional manner. I recommend this seller.
Poorly organized, out of date, long winded.......2007-01-18
The book is poorly organized, out of date, and long winded. If you are a professor, look elsewhere. If you are a student who has to use this, try for used -- that way you won't feel so bad when you throw it away.
Not too bad for a casebook.......2005-07-30
The structure could be better, but I do like how the book explains the rationales and policies in the notes between cases; it makes the cases themselves much more cognizable if you read the notes after the cases first.
... better get a good commercial outline.......2004-02-23
this book is maddening. it zigzags through material in an incomprehensible fashion. you have to work so hard to see which cases go together and how they go together. it certainly doesn't make it easy.
Hamilton has a Nutshell outline, which is okay. The Casenote Outline is quite good in my opinion.
Quite possibly the WORST textbook EVER.......2003-10-29
If this book shows up on the syllabus for your Corporations class, run. There has never been a worse textbook published in the history of academia. The typos are beyond unacceptable. The flow of material makes no sense, and there is no commentary from the authors in between sections to explain why the authors seem to think the topics should be discussed in that order. The cases are incredibly badly edited. One example, out of too many to even count, is in the first case on the law of corporate directors' duty of care. The court's holding about which defendants should be liable is left in, but none of the facts about any of those defendants are in the book at all. Definitions are non-existent, and in the rare places where the authors do try to actually explain concepts, the text is full of errors and the explanations are badly written. Robert Hamilton and Jonathan Macey (the authors) should be ashamed of themselves. You'd be better off typing "business" into Westlaw or Lexis and learning it yourself.
Book Description
This statutory supplement provides the minimum compilation of statutes needed for use in connection with the Fifth Edition of Hamilton's Cases and Materials on Corporations (Including Partnerships and Limited Partnerships) (5th Ed. 1994). It includes verbatim and unedited copies of the current versions of the Uniform Partnership Act (1914), the Uniform Partnership Act (1994), the Uniform Limited Partnership Act (1976) with the 1985 Amendments, the Model Business Corporation Act (1984), and excerpts from the 1969 Model Business Corporation Act consisting of the financial provisions dealing with par value and legal capital. The statutes in this supplement are current as of March 31, 1994. There have been several amendments to the Model Business Corporation Act since its release in 1984, all of which are reflected in this supplement. Because the casebook refers to the language of the withdrawn sections 8.31 and 8.32, the text of these sections is preserved in footnotes in this supplement.
Product Description
Offering the traditional, solid approach of previous editions and now streamlined to include more topics for a one-semester course, Hamilton and Macey's Cases and Materials on Corporations covers the law of business associations and corporations for introductory courses. The book discusses all forms of business organization, including limited-liability companies, partnerships, closely held corporations, publicly held corporations, and novel business forms. It also covers transactions in shares by directors and others; indemnification and insurance; and federal securities law, including insider trading, corporate governance, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. Updated to include new developments, the book covers topics such as Sarbanes-Oxley and more aggressive posturing of the Delaware judiciary, which was revealed for being just that after the important Disney decision; recent developments in asset protection for investors in limited liability companies; the Securities Litigation Uniform Securities Act; new regulations about full disclosure by registered publicly held companies; and the independence of auditors, dirctors and special litigation committees.
Book Description

Inspiring.......2007-05-27
After receiving my disappointing MCAT score and three unsatisfying grades, I saw the world was tembling in front of me. I began to question myself. Do I really have what it takes to become a doctor? Maybe I am not smart enough to compete with other people. I was feeling very discouraged until I encountered John Maxwell's "Success: One Day at a Time." In the book, it says success is not measured by how much one accomplishes but by how many problems one encounters, and one should never give up their goal just because it is difficult at times. I read the entire book in one sitting. The book really helped me to divert my attention from focusing on my lackings to my strengths. It helped me to build a new attitude toward the means of acheiving my goal.
A gift from my mum.......2006-05-05
I wish more people just knew what was written in this book. Its not really what you did in one situation or another, its who you are that makes you who you are. so if you had a bad day or somebody turned you down or something, dont crumble into pieces, just keep living the way you want and eventually- sooner than later- that will pay high dividents
Inspiring and Encouraging.......2006-04-24
This book was given to me by a co-worker years ago when leaving my first counseling position. Ever since then it has inspired me and been a resource that I constantly utilize. Ive used it in my practice of therapy as well as my personal life. Great book that will never become outdated. Buy it and use it, and use it, and use it. Its always close by for a reference on my daily journey. Highly recommended.
Great snippets of wisdom!.......2000-04-11
I've always been a big fan of John Maxwell's work and this did not disappoint. This is a great companion book. Full of great, short, positive insights it's a great source of daily inspiration and wisdom. Maxwell still reigns as the leader in understanding leadership and vision and by culling the wisdom of great leaders he once again provides an inspirational and insightful book!

EXCELLENT, INSPIRING READING.......2007-09-27
I am in sales, my wife is aspiring to bigger things in her position at work. We both found this book to be very inspiring, thought provoking, and a source of encouragement to "keep pushing" at our jobs to excel. I've always enjoyed books that provided a source for generating enthusiasm, and this book does it in spades! it's an easy read, and a book that you can put down and go back to on an as needed basis. We thought so much of this publication that we purchased three additional copies to send to our Sons and a young friend as a means of inspiring them to work hard, excel and never let set backs get you down. We are positive thinkers, who always try to look at the bright side of life. This little book helps us stay motivated and be inspired each morning as we head off to work. I can't tell you how many times we've reread this book. Negativity is contageous, just as much as enthusiasm is. We can't stand negative people, who think negative thoughts. This keeps us on the road to positive thinking, positive attitude, a can-do attitude. My Wife does a newsletter that is sent to her associates each week, and has begun to include appropriate quotes from the book at the end of each one. The response from her managers, as well as her colleagues has been overwhelmingly positive.

Contents do not match the title.......2002-11-23
"Get a job in 30 days or less" is full of useful advice on various parts of a comprehensive job search, but if you thought this was a day-by-day guide to finding a job, forget it. The book has a very clever marketing title, but from a practical stand-point it is NOT a day-by-day list of 'things to do'. Firsty, it will take you several days just to read and work through the exercises in the 'Introduction' and 'Getting Ready' section. And to successfully land a job these exercises need to be worked through in depth. Unless you are a speed-reader and have NOTHING else going on in your life, you probably will not reach 'Week 1 - Day 1' until week 2. The authors provide you with lots of information for every day (including Sunday!) of week 1, for the following 3 weeks you are left pretty much on your own.
In summary, yes, the book has useful tips, however it works better as a reference book (there are sections on 'dealing w/headhunters', 'networking') than a day-by-day list of things to do to land that dream job. Maybe the title sells the book, but the editor or whoever came up with the title is doing a disservice to the reader. (The publisher is McGraw-Hill)
Good luck with the job hunt!
Book Description
"Happiness is waiting for you. Believe in your ability. Cross your bridges. Listen to your heart. Your faith in tomorrow will always help you do what is right… and it will help you be strong along the path to recovery." - Collin McCarty
Throughout time, much has been written on the subject of recovery and the benefits of living life one day at a time. This inspiring collection represents the best of those writings. It brings together thoughts, poetry, and prose by a diverse mix of philosophers, poets, writers, and noted healers whose wise words you will want to read again and again.
Whether you are recovering from an illness, a past experience, or a habit you are trying to break, it's important to remember that with each new day comes the opportunity to start over. At any time, you can choose to refocus your life in a more positive direction, to replace worry and fear with serenity and acceptance, and to rediscover the person you were meant to be. The reassuring messages found within the pages of this book are meant to make the process a little easier by providing uplifting words of advice, understanding, and support.
On the road to recovery, there will be many twists and turns, and life won't always be what you want it to be. But, like any journey, the best way to begin... is one step at a time. With each small advance and by believing in your own ability to make it through, you can achieve your dream of recovery and a happier, healthier... you.
"Our lives are made up of a million moments, spent in a million different ways. Some are spent searching for love, peace, and harmony. Others are spent surviving day to day. But there is no greater moment than when we find that life -- with all its joys and sorrows -- is meant to be lived one day at a time." - Regina Hill
