This comprehensive book, updated to include BAPCPA changes, bridges the divide between classroom theory, courtroom procedure and conference room negotiation. Doctrine and practical counsel are blended in a unique treatment of bankruptcy law and process. New and nonspecialist lawyers, and nonlawyer professionals in particular, will find the book a lifeline to demystifying the arcane rules of the bankruptcy road. Experienced counsel will also find it a refreshing read, not merely a reference to be consulted. Softbound, 512 pages.
