It provides students with the foundation for a business bankruptcy practice: a solid grounding in the law; an orientation to the business issues; and a step-by-step view of the process that may be able to rescue a financially distressed business, either by a traditional reorganization or a sale of the business as a going concern. The treatment of the avoiding powers has been particularly strengthened
