, Introduction
The changes to this fifteenth edition of The Law and Business Administration in Canada are
largely content-based, with updates to legislation, case law, and commentary.
For business students the most practical and useful addition has been the section in each chapter on
Strategies to Manage the Legal Risks. These are quick useful summaries that students can refer to
for each section of the course to help determine an appropriate Legal Risk Management Plan (as
described in Chapter 1).
Applications of the Text
The 15e remains a comprehensive description of the most important business law principles and is
most appropriate for a doctrinal survey course in business law. However, the changes made to the
15e allow instructors to easily adapt the Smyth text to other types of courses such as:
- Legal environment courses,
- Law and ethics courses,
- Selected legal topic electives.
Role of the Instructor’s Manual 15th Edition
The manual fills two roles:
(1) a resource book for the material in the text
– it provides further explanation of text content, case summaries and
answers to questions, problems and cases;
– it also provides supplemental material for background and currency by
referring the instructor to additional cases, articles and web material not referenced in
the text (some cases were decided since the text went to press, others offer depth
beyond that of the text).
(2) a teaching aid
– it recommends strategies to teach particular material;
– it provides a consistent template to deal with ethical theme boxes;
