'This very welcome addition to the literature provides a comprehensive and up-to-date discussion of the many recent changes in EU and UK competition policy. As well as the core issues of single firm dominance, merger and restrictive practices, the book also has detailed coverage of the competition problems raised by the regulated industries, intellectual property rights and state aids. The analysis is accompanied by a host of examples from recent cases. The book thus provides an invaluable source of reference and should gain a wide audience amongst economists, lawyers and policymakers.'
