Mayson, French and Ryan on Company Law is now established as the book which can be relied upon for an accurate and readable account of company law. It is revised every year so that students and practitioners can be sure that they are referring to the most up to date text available. Its great appeal is its ability to present company law, with all its intricacies and detail, in a straightforward fashion. The legislative framework of company law is explained with discussion of the provisions relating to the creation, financing and management of companies and their insolvency and winding up. The abundant case law on the subject is carefully presented and analysed, with quotations from important judgements. Many references are provided to relevant academic articles and there is a full discussion of the proposals for reform made by the Company Law Review.
