Description For courses in business law and the legal environment of business. Help Students Understand the Legal Aspect of Business by Incorporating Critical Thinking and Ethical Analysis The Legal Environment of Business: A Critical Thinking Approach introduces students to the legal side of business using a clear, well-developed, eight-step critical thinking model. This book uses some of the most significant real-life legal cases to help students develop their knowledge about the relationship between business and the legal system. Distinguishing itself by emphasizing the critical thinking skills necessary to survive in today’s competitive global business environment, the text also incorporates ethical analysis and considers the impact of values on legal outcomes. This Eighth Edition has been updated with more current cases, new suggested readings, and new chapters concerning immigration law and the America Invents Act, which significantly impacts patent law. The text further sets itself apart through additional features that connect the law to other disciplines beyond business, introduces a balanced mix of current and classic cases, and presents lists to encourage further reading and exploration of various topics. Develop Critical-Thinking Skills Through a Superior, Comprehensive, One-of-a-kind Approach • An explicit critical thinking model from the author of the best-selling critical thinking textbook is presented in the first chapter: • The eight-step method has as its base the traditional method of case analysis, but adds crucial critical thinking questions to incorporate ethical analysis.

• Each step is clearly explained and outlined in the text, and students are encouraged to apply the steps to every case in the text. • Questions for further explanation, including both critical thinking and ethical analysis sections, are incorporated at the beginning of each chapter and after selected cases to reinforce the skills students learn in the model. • “Thinking Critically about Relevant Legal Issues” essays give students additional opportunities to develop their critical thinking skills. Located at the end of each chapter, these essays let students extend their use of their newly developed critical thinking skills beyond cases to the kinds of arguments they will encounter in their daily lives.
