Thomas Elias

This well-established and authoritative work, now in its seventh edition, is the most detailed reference source on the law relating to minority shareholders. As more and more legal emphasis is put on corporate governance, and as the influence of shareholder activism continues to grow, this book is the leading resource for practitioners requiring up-to-date, detailed information on the rights and remedies available to minority shareholders. The book provides detailed and incisive coverage of section 994 petitions, derivative claims, just and equitable winding-up petitions, and the foreign aspects of shareholder disputes, as well as shareholders' personal claims against companies and the rights conferred on them by the Companies Act 2006. The seventh edition examines all significant recent case law from the UK, including Sevilleja v Marex Financial Ltd on reflective loss, and Loveridge v Loveridge, Re Westshield Ltd, and UTB plc v Sheffield Utd on unfair prejudice. The work also considers case law from courts of other jurisdictions with analogous shareholder provisions, in particular Hong Kong, Singapore, and the Caribbean.

Tom was born to an illiterate mother and brought up in a remote village in Kerala, India. His chance of becoming a successful professional and minister of the gospel in America was mighty little. The sovereign God put this country boy and a country girl together as a family to unfold His incredible master plan for their life.Drs. Tom and Gracy Elias share the story of their life-their family, raising godly children, divine encounters, the manifestation of God's power in weakness, and insights for life. They describe God's faithfulness through the years of their education, their careers, their growing in Christ, their ministries, and the many events that intertwined them.
