This is still the most comprehensive business organizations casebook to focus on closely held business. The book offers more coverage on LLCs than any other business organizations book, and the principal change in the new edition focuses on the most recent uniform LLC Act (as well as Delaware law). Everything else has been brought up to date, including material on the Model Business Corporation Act (which now speaks as of December 2010), Delaware law (which includes corporations, limited partnerships, and limited liability companies), and federal securities law (included in the public corporation supplement).

This casebook covers the law of "closely held" businesses--those with few owners. Such businesses face special problems when compared, for example, to large, publicly held corporations. The book primarily covers four legal areas, through cases, statutes, and original informational notes and commentary: (1) agency law (covering questions of authority, fiduciary duties, and respondeat superior); (2) partnership law (the Revised Uniform Partnership Act and significant common-law developments); (3) the law of close corporations (basic corporate structure, common-law underpinnings and modern statutes, and protections of minority interests); and (4) the law of limited liability companies (LLCs). The book also introduces some problems in the law of small nonprofit organizations and of hybrid companies, such as the "low-profit" LLCs that have been authorized by recent statutes. The book is intended for use in modern versions of the "Agency and Partnership" course, courses on unincorporated or closely held businesses, and the first part of integrated "Business Organizations" sequences of courses. It adopts a functionalist approach to law and introduces students to economic reasoning in business law without relying exclusively on the methods or ideologies of legal economists.

This is still the most comprehensive business organizations casebook to focus on closely held businesses. The casebook retains complete chapters on Corporations, as well as on the hybrid forms of business organizations, including Partnerships, Limited Partnerships, and Limited Liability Companies. The casebook also contains a chapter on issues more closely associated with publicly held business organizations, since many instructors include these materials in a basic course on business organizations. The principal change in the new edition has to do with inclusion of material related to the most recent iteration of the Model Business Corporation Act. The Corporations chapter also includes important changes in Delaware statutory and case law, as well as changes in the corporate law of other jurisdictions. The Partnership, Limited Partnership, and Limited Liability Company chapters have also been brought up to date. Finally, the chapter related to publicly held corporations includes developments in federal securities law.
