'Ewan McGaughey's tour de force has great value for readers of different kinds, (in particular) those interested in the regulatory framework that governs complex enterprises – specifically powerful corporations and institutional investors.… His compilation of enterprise law, in all its aspects, into useful summary chapters serves as a handy reference for anyone seeking an immediate summary of the regulatory structures governing different enterprises within the UK, and a tool to begin further research.' Leo E. Strine, Of counsel, Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz; former Chief Justice and Chancellor, Delaware
