There are tens of thousands of bankruptcies a year. And there are a number of books for advisers and practitioners in bankruptcy. So why this book? What is new now is that there are also hundreds of thousands of individuals and companies crippled by excessive and often unsecured debt. Such situations will increasingly create dilemmas for individuals and those who advise them – should they go bankrupt? What are its implications? How is it avoided? Or how is it best managed? Contents:

• Bankruptcy,
• How Bankruptcy Ends,
• Alternatives to Bankruptcy,
• Winding-Up of Companies and Partnerships,
• Alternatives to Winding-Up,
• Forms, fees and examples.

For CABx workers and debt advisers this is a welcome addition to the available literature, which often aimed at lawyers or accountants. Those same professionals will find it a refreshingly useful memory guide. Libraries will find it an important addition to the information they can make available to individual readers.
