Reviews

'The book is so comprehensive that it cannot be summarised in a few lines, precisely because it deals with the entire subject matter without shirking any of the pertinent issues. The author analyses these thoroughly and meticulously, and backs up his assertions with the appropriate legislative, jurisprudential and bibliographical references. However, what is most striking is not so much the range and variety of the subjects which the author tackles, or the sometimes punctilious accuracy of the information that he includes, but rather his enormous knowledge of the subject matter and the enthusiasm that he brings to bear to his treatment of it.' - Antonio Tizzano, European Court of Justice 'This book definitely contributes an original perspective into EC antitrust rules.' - Luis Ortiz Blanco, Garrigues, Abogados y Asesores Tributarios, Spain
