...an in-depth study of Better Regulation. This series of books...once again demonstrates its mettle with serious academic study and scientific rigour. Frederik Ronse Agence Europe S.A. No. 9556/757, 4th December 2007 This essay collection is an interesting, timely and significant contribution to academic and policy debates about better regulation...a major contribution to current debates about regulatory reform and will be essential reading for students, academic researchers and policy-makers. Bettina Lange Public Law 2008 Better Regulation brings together academics and practitioners from various backgrounds, who do a wonderful job of offering deeper insights into the tensions within the better regulation debate. The remarkable breadth of the topics covered by the book does not allow them all to be addressed adequately in this review. Yet, it is enough to say that the book ... is interesting reading for all academics interested in regulation and/or involved in political decision-making.
