Douglas Ginsburg is a Renaissance man in the antitrust world. His achievements are legion. What could be a better tribute to him than a volume with similar Renaissance qualities, bringing together practitioners, economists, enforcers and academics to explore some of the wide-ranging economics and antitrust issues on which his scholarship, judicial decisions and contributions to international debate have had such a profound influence. Like its dedicatee, it challenges and inspires. - Antonio Bavasso, Allen & Overy Excellent articles in honor of an excellent judge. - Dennis W. Carlton, Compass Lexecon Thank you, Judge Ginsburg, and thank you, Concurrences, for the occasion of this tribute to an extraordinary person. The volume is a rich collection of essays by distinguished scholars, practitioners and officials who draw from the depths of their experience and admiration to celebrate Doug Ginsburg. The essays contribute to the body of knowledge of life and law - from doctrinal to fanciful, pragmatic to visionary. They are a pleasure to read. - Eleanor M. Fox, New York University Why is Judge Douglas Ginsburg the most respected and beloved member of the international Antitrust community ? What makes everyone, in every portion of the political spectrum, admire him so much ? Why is he revered both for his intellectual brilliance and his personality ? This volume was written as a modest tribute to modern competition law's wisest and kindest statesman. These essays, by people fortunate enough to have interacted with him in a wide variety of settings, provide insights into the reasons for the affection we all have for him. Mere words will never be able to fully convey these feelings or the reasons for his influence all over the world. But these essays at least make a valiant attempt to honor and pay respect to a Giant. And these aren't just words of praise. They should inspire the rest of us to become a little bit more like him in so many ways. - Robert H. Lande, University of Baltimore Judge Ginsburg's in-depth knowledge of economics and antitrust law and his talent as a professor and mentor have made him one of the most widely respected and influential figures in the worldwide competition community. In addition to serving as the head of the DOJ's Antitrust Division and Chief Judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, he has taught antitrust economics to over 500 foreign competition enforcers and judges. He is also a thoughtful and wise mentor. This book is a fitting tribute to him and the influence he's had on modern antitrust thinking. - Koren Wong-Ervin, Qualcomm
