This edition of Law for Accountancy Students has been substantially updated in light of various developments since the last edition, including the effects of the Access to Justice Act 1999 and the Human Rights Act 1998, the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 and the Limited Liability Partnership Act 2000. Written to encourage a thoughtful and practical approach to the subject, this book provides rigorous coverage of the CIMA, CACA, and ICAEW syllabuses in order that students are well prepared to apply legal concepts to real life business situations.
