Description
The eighth edition of Concise Australian Commercial Law offers a concise overview of the key concepts and principles of commercial law in Australia. The aim is to introduce students to the main areas of commercial law – the law of contract, consumer protection, data protection and privacy law, the law of torts, agency law, the law of business organisations and business ethics – in a way that strikes a balance between the need for clarity, accessibility and simplicity and the need for materials to be challenging, relevant and current.
Each chapter of this edition has been updated to incorporate the many changes to the law that have occurred since the seventh edition. There have been several important appellate court decisions in many of the topics and significant legislative amendments to the Australian Consumer Law, the Corporations Act and the Privacy Act. The chapter on business ethics includes the legislative developments in relation to modern slavery and the emergence of ESG as a significant factor in corporate decision-making. Finally, an expanded chapter on data protection and privacy law has been included, acknowledging the increasing importance of this aspect of the law.
Acknowledging that teaching and learning at tertiary institutions has changed dramatically in recent years (more online teaching and assessment) inevitably places greater emphasis on texts and other materials, there are extensive case summaries and commentaries, diagrams, flowcharts and tables as well as a set of tutorial activities at the end of each chapter that includes both comprehension-style questions and extended hypotheticals, and an introductory section on how to approach the study of commercial law, including advice on how to approach a variety of assessment tasks.
