Law School for Everyone: Corporate Law by George S. Geis provides an accessible introduction to the legal rules that govern corporations in the United States. Based on a 12-lecture course from The Great Courses, it explains how corporations are created and managed, how boards of directors and shareholders divide authority, and how corporate law addresses conflicts involving fiduciary duties, executive compensation, shareholder lawsuits, securities regulation, mergers, hostile takeovers, insider trading, and corporate misconduct. Geis combines legal principles with well-known corporate cases and practical examples, helping readers understand how corporate governance rules influence decision-making inside companies. The guide is especially useful for law students, business students, investors, and professionals who want a concise foundation in corporate law without requiring prior legal training.
