'To date, economic analysis has not realized its enormous potential for illuminating issues of comparative law. The Research Handbook in Comparative Law and Economics fills that gap. Edited by eminent scholars in the field, this book demonstrates the power of economic methodology to illuminate theoretical and policy-oriented issues across many legal systems. It should be essential reading for anyone interested in cutting edge research in the fields of economic analysis and comparative law.' -- Geoffrey Miller, New York University, Law School, US 'This remarkable volume shows off the eclectic potential of the comparative law and economics brand. It is comparative not only in assembling scholars from around the world and in zipping from Taiwanese civil disputes to international high courts to drug regulators for case studies, but most importantly in highlighting an empirical methodology that welcomes a range of complementary approaches that broadens the core economic analysis of law. It's a fascinating tour across boundaries.' -- Stewart J. Schwab, Cornell Law School
