Reviews
'Competition Policy is the only book, of which I am aware, that combines an informed analysis of competition policy in both the United States and Europe with the analytical tools from industrial organization that are needed to understand each topic. Manfred Neumann is one of the leading industrial economics scholars in Europe, and he has done those of us who teach industrial economics a great service by writing this book.' -- Dennis C. Mueller, University of Vienna, Austria 'With the publication of Competition Policy, Manfred Neumann breaks new ground. He synthesizes a mixture of historical, theoretical and policy perspectives that only an experienced and accomplished scholar can provide. Most importantly, Neumann manages to combine economic precision with a text that is interesting and thought-provoking. His unique and novel approach to understanding and analyzing competition policy will make this required reading to all scholars, policymakers and students concerned with the subject.' -- David B. Audretsch, Indiana University, Bloomington, US and Otto Beisheim School WHU, Germany 'Competition Policy touches on a burning issue which was with us yesterday, which pervades today's discussions and which will, no doubt, be with us for a long time to come.' -- Karl W. Roskamp, Wayne State University, US
