The first edition of this work was published in 1996, and the second edition was issued in 2002, with both editions having more impressions due to its popularity. In his foreword to the first edition, Emeritus Professor John Farrar noted that the author's style is 'lucid and practical,' a 'work of scholarship...and takes its place as one of the Commonwealth's works of excellence.'

The first edition was regarded as a "bold and inventive work" by Sir John Vinelott.

The second edition garnered comparable praise, with Gopal Sri Ram JCA (as he was then) commenting that the author analyses the subject "carefully and thoroughly."

The third edition has been eagerly anticipated, as evidenced by the number of queries received by LexisNexis. This third edition includes the judicial advancements and refinements to common law principles that have occurred both at home and abroad, including statutory amendments. These modifications are examined and analysed in the light of the Companies Act 2016 revisions since 2002.

It provides a contemporary exposition on corporate governance, as well as an innovative approach to company law from the standpoint of accountability of corporate powers and conduct on the part of persons who have administrative or fiduciary duties and responsibilities in the management of the affairs of companies, whether private or public.
