I have aimed to make it modern, accessible, practical, and affordable. It's priced at $85. A statutes & rules supplement is available for $25.

The book includes up-to-date treatment of corporate law, which has changed quite a bit lately.

This should have been the central organizing question during the post-2008 financial reform process, but it wasn't. No real theory of the case.
