Reviews

"From the reviews: ""The book is divided into four parts (plus Part V, Conclusions), each dedicated to a different aspect of SSGIs. ... this book provides a sound, thorough analysis of crucial aspects of SSGIs. In my opinion is an absolute 'must-have' for every scholar interested especially in Services of General Interest (in a broad sense) but also with other branches of EU law such as (just to name few) competition law, State aid law, social law and healthcare law."" (Jakub Kociubinski, European Law Review, Vol. 39 (3), 2014)"
