The arguments in the book are clear, well evidenced and indicative of the author's distinguished career as a scholar, lawyer and legal advisor...Stucke uses concise language and useful examples to make specialised concepts easily comprehensible to readers who are unfamiliar with either or both fields. This makes Breaking Away a valuable read not only for scholars, lawyers, consumer groups and policymakers, but also anyone interested in how their data are being used and what can be done about it.
