About The Book
This book is intended to provide independent directors and their advisors with an understanding of the primary legal and governance issues that have evolved in the corporate governance environment since the passage of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in 2002. The printed text is intended to be accessible to attorney and nonattorney readers. Since the book covers legal matters and is written by lawyers, some "legalese" is inevitable, good intentions notwithstanding. The text on the accompanying CD-ROM sourcebook is footnoted to direct lawyers (or interested non-lawyers) to legal source material. In addition, the footnotes are hypertext linked to copies of the source material itself, providing users with the ability to move directly from the text to the statutory, regulatory, administrative, and case material underlying the text. The source material is intended to be a useful starting point for deeper research, but the source material is not encyclopedic in scope and will not reflect developments after the date that this book and disc are published. Footnote references are abbreviated. For example, "Sarbanes- Oxley Act of 2002, Section 301" would be listed as "SOX 301" or "17 C.F.R. 240.10b-5" would be listed as "SEC Rule 10b-5." A table of the cited underlying materials is provided at the beginning of the book.
