Recenzje

'The great strength of Enterprise Liability and the Common Law is its clear-eyed account of the implications of a firm commitment to enterprise liability, as opposed to fault liability. Upon reading it, one is compelled to ask oneself just how firm that commitment ought to be.' Alistair Price, The Cambridge Law Journal
