It offers clear insight into this fascinating area of financial law, from the analysis of the legal and regulatory framework of corporate governance in the UK to the core laws and regulatory principles that determine the allocation of decision-making power in UK public companies. <p/>This book also highlights how prevailing corporate governance norms operate within their broader market and societal context. In doing so, it seeks to encourage readers to develop their own critical opinions on the topic by reference to leading strands of theoretical and inter-disciplinary literature, along with relevant comparative and historical insights.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>"At long last we have a book that can be used as a text for undergraduate and postgraduate corporate governance modules designed for law students.

Here at last is a suitably erudite and well written text that students and academics can use for Corporate Governance and as a supplementary text for Company Law courses." --<i>Alan Dignam, School of Law, Queen Mary, University of London, UK</i> <p/>"The book offers a very thorough and comprehensive discussion of what has now emerged as the stand alone subject of corporate governance. It covers extremely well both the theoretical and the regulatory aspects. It is by far the best academic textbook out there and will be an invaluable and irreplaceable source for related postgraduate and undergraduate courses." --<i>Michael Galanis, School of Law, The University of Manchester, UK</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Marc Moore is Reader in Corporate Law, and Director of the Masters in Corporate Law (MCL) degree and the Centre for Corporate and Commercial Law (3CL) at the University of Cambridge.
