This exciting new text, e-Commerce Law: Issues for Business, provides an understanding of the major legal issues confronting cyberspace and e-commerce. An integration of traditional law with the emerging law of cyberspace provides a unique perspective to help students see how and why business decision-makers may seek legal assistance before their transactions beome irrevocably fixed or their actions become irreversible.
