The book follows the same philosophy in the second edition. Emphasis is on textual explanation, very few cases, with plenty of problems for students to test their understanding and provide the basis for classroom discussion. For the second edition, here are some new features: Available in both print and electronic formats. The electronic version will have links to more than two dozen electronic exercises for students to work through and help them increase their understanding of Article 9 concepts. Updated to take account of 2010 amendments to Article 9. Material on the amendments is separated and marked to avoid confusion and allow instructors to skip it until states enact the changes. 15 new problems; 32 other problems revised.
