3 things to know about Dynamic Business Law:
- Emphasis on the BUSINESS in business law. Dynamic Business Law emphasizes the tie of legal issues back to the core business curriculum. This will help both students and faculty. Students need to understand how the concepts they learn in this course tie to their future business careers. Instructors can easily show that the study of business law is best seen as a foundational component of the larger study of business administration. As the first sentence of the book reads, “This book is for future business managers.” This is not a law text – it’s a business law text.
- Emphasis on TEACHING. We know that many of your teaching this course are practicing attorneys, have little prep time for this course, and often don’t have a lot of resources at your disposal to teach the course as effectively as you might like. Dynamic Business Law is written with you in mind. It contains a very detailed and helpful instructor’s manual, particularly for the many adjuncts teaching this course. And most importantly, the author team has won dozens of teaching awards, both state and national, and they are dedicated to help you getting started using this book. If you have any questions for the author team, please don’t hesitate to contact us (Sarah_schuessler@mcgraw-hill.com) and we’ll put you in touch.

- Emphasis on CRITICAL THINKING. Neil Browne, one of the co-authors of this text, has written a successful text on critical thinking. His framework is included in Dynamic Business Law as well – to help students learn how to frame and reframe a question/issue. Critical thinking questions are also included at the end of each case, to tie in this component even further. We do more than just ask a lot of critical thinking questions – we encourage the use of a step-by-step critical thinking approach that has been developed and used in many classrooms in many countries. We don’t just urge students to ‘think critically’ – instead, we describe for them what is mean by that phrase in the context of business law.
