Reviews

`This Handbook provides both up-to-date knowledge for the practitioner dealing with EU tort law as well as food for thought for academics working on comparative tort law and EU private law. Doubtless, it will fulfil its stated call to arms of promoting critical -- examination of this (newly identified) field of law.' - Monique Hazelhorst, Common Market Law Review
