EC and UK competition law : commentary, cases, and materials

"EC and UK Competition Law: Commentary, Cases and Materials offers a clear, concise and comprehensive account of the competition rules of the EC and the UK. These rules have witnessed a phenomenal increase in significance over the years. In the case of EC competition rules, these have become an important source of consultation, increasingly serving as a model followed by many countries when adopting or developing competition rules within their domestic legal systems. This book is therefore of international interest. It offers a single up-to-date source of all the important cases, legislation and guidelines clearly annotated and presented in a highly accessible way. With a detailed commentary and case studies (with model answers), this book will eliminate the need for students to consult multiple sources. Key developments in both EC and UK competition law are covered, as well as the most recent EC and UK judgments and decisions."--Jacket
