Legal Environment of Business, 9th Edition, is a textbook by Henry R. Cheeseman published by Pearson. It examines how legal frameworks, e-commerce developments, and government regulations influence modern business decisions.
The volume addresses foundational subjects including judicial systems, alternative dispute resolution, business ethics, and constitutional law. Broad coverage also encompasses contracts, torts, corporate governance, employment rules, and intellectual property.
