An Introductory Guide to EC Competition Law and Practice

This is the sixth edition of the now famous and widely used Introductory Guide to EC Competition Law and Practice by Valentine Korah. Written originally as a guide for business people,it has long since outstripped that role and is now among the list of books considered essential for both students and practitioners of competition law. Its clear and readable style complements a text which is rich in detail yet also firmly rooted in principle. For students it offers a sure-footed introduction to a subject which can confuse the unwary; and by referring extensively to practice, it also gives students an invaluable insight into how law works in the real world. For practitioners, whether novice or experienced, there is an abundance of insight into the arcane workings of the European Commission as well as trenchant comment on its decisions and policies. This new edition maintains the standard of earlier editions by analysing the most recent legislation, notices and cases and by suggesting the way the subject may develop in the future.
