Recenzje

'Well-written and engaging even to the lay reader, this new volume is a must-read for anyone interested in antitrust reform. Devlin charts a careful middle course between our current weakened system of antitrust enforcement and the calls for radical reform coming from many quarters today. This is a book with the potential to make the world a better place.' Mark A. Lemley, Stanford Law School
