Review

For this edition the author revised and updated much of the text and included new chapters on articles of association, partnerships and financing. By providing precedents on the back of the back as on CD-ROM, this new edition is clearly an easy-to-use and helpful tool. Shareholders' agreements is written by practitioners for practitioners and should therefore not be missing in any corporate law firm's library.
