Professional Highlights
The titles contained in this section combine theoretical and practical concerns to give professionals tools and know-how having a solid disciplinary, and often interdisciplinary, grounding. These are veritable professional reference books, which go beyond the usual array of graphs, cases, models, norms usually discussed in the professional literature, to provide intellectual arguments and contexts, as well as synopses of ground-breaking research in business and law. In order to respond to short-term variations either in the legal framework or in the business context, titles are often complemented by online supplements, which update contents in a convenient way.
