Review:
"It is difficult to suggest any improvements since Anderson Fox Twomey and Jennings have done a better job with this topic [Revised Article 3] than the authors of the business law text I presently use." Bob Vicars, Bluefield State University
"I have to say that this is the best 'business ethics' chapter that I have encountered . . . A student can relate to this chapter." Philip Evans, Kutztown University of Pennsylvania
"This expanded coverage [franchises] is excellent because it is more detailed. Students relate well to this topic. So many of them have worked for a franchise. This discussion of franchising also reinforced previously learned topics -- contract law, employment law, and tort law." Francis Polk, Ocean County College
