Securities Law: Selected Statutes and Regulations contains the text of federal laws and regulations in the area of securities as published by the United States Government Printing Office on the FDSYS website. The currency of each law and regulation can be found in its header block. The editors have endeavored to gather all relevant laws, rules and regulations related to this area of law, including Securities Act of 1933, The Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, the Investment Company and Investment Advisors Acts of 1940, Sarbanes-Oxley, Dodd-Frank and the regulations and forms promulgated under them. It also contains the Attorney Standards of Conduct in this area. It is intended to be used primarily as a statutory supplement for law students and legal scholars in academic settings, although practitioners in this area of law will also find it useful.

Due to the large size of this book, it has been divided into four separate download files. Volume One contains the Securities Act of 1933 and the regulations promulgated under it. Volume Two contains the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the regulations associated with it. Volume Three contains the Investment Company and the Investment Advisors Acts of 1940 and their regulations. Volume Four contains the Sarbanes-Oxley and Dodd-Frank Laws as well as the Attorney Standards of Conduct.

The sixth edition, first published as an ebook, and this seventh edition carry forward the philosophy and structure of the earlier editions. This book is not a comprehensive treatise on the subject of civil procedure, yet it provides a mixture of expository text, cases, and self-testing questions in nearly all of the major areas of the subject.

In order to maximize accessibility, flexibility, and compatibility of the book, the authors have chosen CALI’s eLangdell Press to publish and distribute the sixth edition (as chapters) and this revised seventh (as a complete book) electronically with a Creative Commons license. Publishing a law textbook electronically with far fewer restrictions than most commercial books and using a somewhat new, boutique outfit such as eLangdell Press is an unconventional choice, to say the least. But the authors share the eLangdell vision of more flexible teaching materials for professors and more cost-effective books for students. Professors may now edit and remix this work to match their teaching without worry of copyright infringement. Students may now adopt this book, read it using any number of software or devices, and even print it - all for free. The book’s authors, like its publishers, believe that this new book model represents an important and long overdue step forward in the way law school books are published.
