This Handbook is a valuable resource for boards of directors or trustees and lawyers who advise them to help them identify technology issues and the legal implications that can affect the organizations they serve. Beginning with a brief recap of directors' duties under Delaware corporation law, the Handbook includes pithy chapters light on legal jargon to highlight intersections of law and technology.

Understanding that technology is an ever-evolving force, the drafters use technology examples to illustrate issues that are expected to remain persistent in years to come. The context in which the matters arise in practice will evolve through the ordinary course of technology innovation.

As a quick reference tool, the chapters are short with brief background descriptions and key questions to guide the reader on approaching technology as a pervasive, persistent, and evolving force. Written by practice leaders in specialty areas, this guide includes discussion on:

• The lawyer's role in communicating with the board about technology
