Reviews

`this book, which is the most comprehensive account of EPC yet available in English, is to be welcomed' Diplomacy and Statecraft `This book aims to provide a greater understanding of a little-known process.' European Access `This book reflects his detailed knowledge of the workings of the EC in general and the Commission in particular ... It is, of course, accurate, thorough and detailed - in fact a compendium of knowledge acquired through hard graft and, doubtless, many late night meetings.' The Round Table `European Political Co-operation is easy to read without being simplistic and offers at the end of each chapter a selection of further reading for the interested reader. The comprehendive bibliography and index make the book appealing for students with various levels of previous knowledge. Nuttall thus allows the reader to get a preliminary understanding of EPC and entices him or her to further research of a subject that is both complex and evolving.' West European Politics `This welcome book is written by an insider with clarity and insight ... In short, this book repays close reading and is a valuable addition to the literature for students of the EC and international relations.' Political Studies `important new book ... As well as being a practitioner who has worked in and with the system since he moved from the British Foreign Office to Brussels as a Euro-diplomat 20 years ago, he has been a leading participant in the academic study of the subject, not least through the sequence of significant analyses he has contributed to the Yearbook of European Law. His comprehensive new study appears at a very timely moment ... anyone seriously interested in the subject will learn a very great deal from its detailed and vivid reconstruction of the events. It will provide an indispensable basis for future research on the many issues it considers, and must long remain the standard account of the development, organization, and achievements of European Political Co-operation during its first 20 years.' Roger Morgan, Times Higher Education Supplement `One of the occupational hazards of writing books about Europe at the present time is the danger of obsolescence. Happily, this book is an exception.' International Affairs
