Description
PRINCIPLES OF LAW FOR NEW ZEALAND BUSINESS STUDENTS is designed for students of the commercial law paper in the National Diploma in Business Studies, and those taking introductory law courses for business degrees. The book is also suitable for the Legal Executives Course paper, 'Introduction to the Legal System'. The text is divided into three parts: (1) the basis of New Zealand law; (2) the law of contract; and (3) particular aspects of commercial law. Supplements: A Companion Website is available, and contains a variety of self-testing questions for students, as well as lecturer resources: www.pearsoned.co.nz/hubbard. The fourth edition has been updated and substantially rewritten in response to changes in prescriptions as well as in the law itself. The chapter on history of the law has been combined with the introduction in Chapter 1. Similarly there is no longer a separate chapter on negligence. This material has been transferred to a single chapter on tort. The other significant change has been the reintroduction (from the first edition) of a chapter on intellectual property. There has also been a conscious attempt to streamline and simplify the material to better meet the needs of the users. Each chapter starts with its intended learning outcomes, to serve as a guide to the student. The writing style is lively, and interesting examples from actual cases are used to illustrate the legal points made. Chapter summaries, lists of key words and revision exercises help students to assess their understanding of the contents. Full referencing provides convenient 'signposting' for readers. Included are a list of abbreviations, a table of cases, tables of New Zealand and overseas legislation, a glossary and an index.
