In this new edition the author considers in detail such currently topical issues as the control of insider trading, the debates on industrial democracy and worker participation, the growth of monopolies and multinational corporations, and the increasing impact on company law of Britain's membership of the European Economic Community. The changes effected both by the European Communities Act 1972, s.9, passed to comply with the EEC First Directive, and the lapsed 1979 Companies Bill, which was designed in part to implement the EEC Second Directive, are extensively examined.
