Reviews

Original, well written, thought provoking . . . this is an important contribution to the ongoing debate on American antitrust law. An accessible and fruitful read for the novice and seasoned expert, who will find a different perspective on issues that are normally taken for granted. -- Nicola Giocoli, Professor of Economics, University of Pisa


Original, well written, thought provoking . . . this is an important contribution to the ongoing debate on American antitrust law. An accessible and fruitful read for the novice and seasoned expert, who will find a different perspective on issues that are normally taken for granted. -- Nicola Giocoli, Professor of Economics, University of Pisa White’s thought-provoking book challenges us to rethink the basic pillars of antitrust – from competition, to market power, to consumer welfare – and to confront the paradox of enforcing antitrust in a liberal society. In so doing, White raises a provocative question: What rights are we willing to sacrifice on the altar of economic welfare or populist ideals? -- Geoffrey A. Manne, President & Founder, International Center for Law & Economics Readable, refreshing, and relevant. A lively jaunt through the underpinnings of antitrust law from an all too rare perspective: one that champions individual rights. -- Anastasia Boden, Director, Robert A. Levy Center for Constitutional Studies, Cato Institute
