Phillip Blumberg is Dean and Professor Emeritus at University of Connecticut School of Law. After two decades of law practice on Wall Street and leadership as the CEO of a New York Stock Exchange-listed financial corporation, he turned to legal scholarship. He is the country's leading authority on corporate groups and the author of path-breaking books including The Multinational Challenge to Corporation Law and the five-volume treatise Blumberg on Corporate Groups (2nd edition). Six years ago, he became interested in early American jurisprudence; this volume is the result.
