Constitutional Law of the European Union (European Law Series)

Douglas-Scott is the first British Author to write a book with a title that is as much provocative as it is timely

Douglas Scott does not aim at just describing the law, but at explaining it and clarifying European constitutional law by reflecting it through the lenses of other disciplines, namely political theory, philosophy and international relations

Douglas Scott's book shows the great advantage of the contextual approach in clarifying and explaining its legal subject by looking beyond the law

This appraoch makes EU law more lively, more lucid and finally more comprehensible to the student

...the book works well as a guide through the law and theoretical approaches to the Union, with valuable references to further literature

Dr Philipp Dann, Referendair Kammergericht, Berlin (European Public Law Journal)

'...the author employs some very user-friendly techniques in explaining the law and the institutions of the EU...students will find the style both interesting and provocative...the text will succeed in students...taking a fresh interest in, and approach, to the subject.

'...it will become (if it has not already) a leading text, popular with the discerning student and recommended by a very large number of academic staff on a wide range of courses.'
