Editor's Notes
March 14, 2019:
Business law is an extensive field that encompasses many specialized areas of practice, so we thought a list comprised mainly of general overviews as well as a few functional titles (Employment Law for Business, International Business Law and The Entrepreneur's Guide to Law and Strategy) would be the most beneficial to readers. We prioritized volumes written by highly educated authorities and professors in the field, as well as selections that used thoughtful pedagogy and visuals. We also ensured that all our choices encourage active participation and critical thinking, as this is a discipline that cannot be practiced passively. Included The Curse of Bigness for those who want to read something niche, shorter, and less formatted than traditional textbooks. Placed Introduction to Business Law at the top spot since it should satisfy many needs, is easy to understand, simple to navigate, and fosters the line of logical thinking that is pertinent to understanding and applying the law.

Born in Arizona, Gia is a writer and autodidact who fled the heat of the desert for California, where she enjoys drinking beer, overanalyzing the minutiae of life, and channeling Rick Steves. After arriving in Los Angeles a decade ago, she quickly nabbed a copywriting job at a major clothing company and derived years of editing and proofreading experience from her tenure there, all while sharpening her skills further with myriad freelance projects. In her spare time, she teaches herself French and Italian, has earned an ESL teaching certificate, traveled extensively throughout Europe and the United States, and unashamedly devours television shows and books. The result of these pursuits is expertise in fashion, travel, beauty, literature, textbooks, and pop culture, in addition to whatever obsession consumes her next.
