Book excerpt: It is essential that all students who intend to undertake a career in business have an understanding of the fundamental legal building blocks that underpin commercial life in Australia. It is the basic aim of PRINCIPLES OF BUSINESS LAW to provide students with that understanding in the following areas: an introduction to the Australian legal system; the law of contract; the law of torts (with a particular emphasis on negligent misstatement); actions under Pt V of the Trade Practices Act; and an overview of the principal business organisations used in Australia (corporations, trusts and partnerships). The primary objective in writing this book has been to make these important areas of law as clear and accessible to students as possible. The book has been informed by the authors' wide experience in teaching business law and related units at tertiary level. A genuine effort has been made to provide clear explanations, case studies and examples to bring these topics to life. The format of PRINCIPLES OF BUSINESS LAW has been designed to make cases and examples stand out and each chapter is concluded by a set of tutorial questions to ensure that students know how to apply the work covered in each chapter. PRINCIPLES OF BUSINESS LAW gives students a sound understanding of Australian business law and its application in everyday commercial life. Students will no doubt find this a most useful and accessible text.
