 Makes learning the essentials of business law clear and easy December 14, 2004

I enjoyed this book! So much so that the one I'm selling here is an extra copy (I ordered one that didn't get to me in time so I had to buy another one). I learned a lot and will refer to it in the future. This is a great book for business majors as well as anyone that does not have a law background but will need the knowledge for Public Policy, International Relations, etc. Good information those who would like to start their own business, too.
Must be the best business law book out there! October 3, 2004

Rich in content, comprehensive, and very user-friendly. Presentation is excellent. Use of color, diagrams and boxes sets it apart from the majority of law books which are nothing more than 1000 pages of black and white text. The auhor also has a very well-chosen set of cases for the reader to see the legal process in practice. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT, it is a MUST for any student of law or as a reference for a business owner.
I Actually Took the Author's Class!! Awesome Book. Easy Read. May 3, 2006

I actually took Professor Cheeseman's BUAD 403 Legal Environment class at the University of Southern California! He's the funniest and most interesting professor I've ever had. Read the Haiku at the beginning of the book. It's bizarre until you know his past; then it's hailarious. Cheeseman is a brilliant man. After serving in the Army during Vietnam, he's earned 6 degrees!
This book weighs a ton, but its not some heavy text on legal theory. This book is made for the student. He does all the work for you by breaking everything down. He even puts concept summaries in the margins for you procastinators that cram. The book is not only informative, its entertaining. He explains all concepts with real-life cases. The case studies in the book are the most interesting part. I learned so much from this book. Especially the part on contract law. I feel sorry for people who have no idea how contracts surround our lives. For example when I send out my credit card # on Amazon I'm electronically putting my signature on a click-wrap contract and now subject to the numerous integrated reference clauses I don't see under Amazon. I personally feel much safer with this knowledge and I can thank this book for that. I really wish you guys could sit in on his lectures. You'd spend 2 hours every week laughing. But if you can't, this book is a great substitute.

I took Henry Cheeseman's Business Law class at USC and he is an amazing professor! His book shows it all. Out of all my textbooks in my undergraduate and graduate studies, this is by far the most easy/fun to read textbook, while explaining everything in detail with many case examples!
If you want to get a general idea of what exactly law and business law is, then this is the book to buy. After reading this book, my interest in law sparked! I am actually planning on reading through it one more time to refresh my memory!
Very helpful, informative, and down-to-earth March 17, 2009

Excellent book, I have used it at the University of Delaware for 2 classes now. This is the type of book every business owner should read regardless of whether they intend to earn college credit. This information is a MUST KNOW! Every citizen of this country would benefit from knowing and understanding their legal rights. The cost of this book is invaluable for the legal advise one will receive. Glad I get to take this class and learn such important info.
It is well laid out and easy to follow and understand. The cases provide excellent demonstrations and memorable circumstances where law has been practiced and determined. I will hold onto this one. Thank you Henry Cheeseman for compiling such an intelligible resource.
