Media Reviews
An EU law book which I have actually enjoyed reading! Very concise, using modern examples to illustrate fact and analysis. An interesting and thought provoking approach to one of THE driest subjects in a law degree! * Kate Taylor, LLB Student, University of Cardiff *
As a starting point for both undergraduate and postgraduate students, lecturers cannot go wrong with recommending this textbook. The chapters are well written and give a clear and easily understandable overview of the subject, and topical issues like the financial crisis are explained in a neutral way that will no doubt help to inform discussions in the classroom. * The Law Teacher *
Very clear cut and rather interesting chapters! I definitely learnt a few new facts! The chapters are written by many world-class professors yet are very appropriate for students, easy to understand and an enjoyable read. * Meraj Sakaria, LLB student, Swansea University *
This is a particularly strong textbook which introduces the reader comfortably into the subject by giving the historical and political context. What often lets students down is their understanding of cases, yet by including in-depth case analyses the authors deepen this understanding. * Ronan Buist, LLB Student, Dundee University *
Unique in its breadth of coverage, this is one of the most up to date, authoritative, and comprehensive EU law textbooks. * Francesco de Cecco, Lecturer in Law, Newcastle University *
The engaging style and manner of the authors makes this accessible to all students, the pitch is perfect. Clearly the authors have a passion, which is infectious. * Dewi Williams, Senior Lecturer, Staffordshire University *
The book offers the necessary level of detail, but also a well-handled overall thematic narrative that would help a student see the woods as well as the trees. * Stephen Weatherill, Fellow and Professor of European Law, Somerville College, University of Oxford *
