The Economics Of Corporation Law And Securities Regulation, Larry E. Ribstein, C. Paul Rogers
The Economics Of Corporation Law And Securities Regulation, Larry E. Ribstein, C. Paul Rogers
Vanderbilt Law Review
To evaluate this book as a teaching tool one must consider several questions. First, of what value is an economic analysis of law?

Codification And Rule 10b-5, Lewis D. Lowenfels
Vanderbilt Law Review
One of the most interesting as well as controversial areas of the securities laws has been the growth of implied liabilities under section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule l0(b)-5 promulgated there under.

New Books And Recent Scholarship, F. Hodge O'Neal, Jordan Derwin, C. Edwin Chapman, Jr.
Vanderbilt Law Review
The years since World War II have brought extensive developments in the field of corporation law and practice. Many states have enacted a completely new corporation statute' or a new blue sky law. At the same time, "federal corporation law" and federal securities regulation have grown substantially.

A number of highly publicized proxy fights have spurred developments in the law applicable to the proxy system. Some courts have enunciated interesting legal principles applicable to the sale of corporate control. And just last …
