 Not great, but better than nothing June 20, 2008
The worst of the E & E series, this book is way too dense for its purpose. The questions (many, but not most, of them) are poorly written.
Instead of simplifying concepts it merely reexplains them in technichal jargon.
As mentioned in an above review, the Securities stuff is really good.
It's still good review- i.e better than nothing.

I generally like the Examples and Explanations series, however "Corporations" is not one of their best. As other reviewers have mentioned, this book focuses primarily on the Model Business Corporations Act and does not include cites to Delaware or other states. Usually, I could find the cites myself, but this added a layer of work when I made my outline. Also, some cases were not explained succintly in one place--rather, the analysis was spread throughout a chapter and continued through the examples. This was distracting--it was more helpful when the key cases of a doctrine were summarized in one place and then briefly referenced later on. If your class focuses on Delaware you should also beware that there have been several key developments since 2006 that will alter some of the chapters. Other than that, it is hard to beat E&E for a good review of the material and "Corporations" does the job.
It's Sort of Helpful, Kinda. December 19, 2007
This book is pretty solid on the Federal securities acts. For everything else, if you are studying the Model Code then you'll be happy, but if you study DE or any other law, you will find nothing of use here.
good last-minute review book January 9, 2007

good review for corporations class. it is based on the model code, and sometimes DE. but if you need NY law, this book doesn't help that much. but the explanations are clear and interesting.
