Excerpt from American Business Law: With Legal Forms One of the most noteworthy developments during re cent years in educational courses has been the increasing prominence given to the study of business law. A few years ago this subject was taught virtually nowhere save in law schools. To-day it is being generally adopted by progressive colleges and universities. It is a study whose educational value can hardly be overestimated. It trains and exercises the student's mind, and it is of such practical utility that he cannot fail to realize its advantages. More' over, it has a rare human interest, especially if the prin ciples are illustrated with actual cases. Almost every case in the higher courts represents a conflict on the outcome of which important interests are staked. And the decision of each lawsuit not only shows the result of that particular case, but also indicates what will probably be decided in similar cases arising thereafter.
