Reviews

This book offers an independent analysis of the prospects for reaching a new-generation agreement based on improved regulatory cooperation rather than pure market access. This exercise will hopefully help fill a gap that has stymied significant progress in trade talks in recent years. -- Pascal Lamy, former Director-General of the World Trade Organization Whether the issue is the 'old trade' barriers of market access or the 'new trade' challenge of regulatory cooperation, and whether the perspective is economics or geopolitics, these valuable essays will tell you what you need to know about TTIP: It's an incredible - and timely - resource. -- Robert B. Zoellick, former US Trade Representative, President of the World Bank and US Deputy Secretary of State
