Editorial Reviews

"The book is a useful tool for all practitioners who encounter any kind of vertical agreements. ... unlike many other more general or academic competition law handbooks Vertical Agreements in EU Competition Law is clearly a book from practitioners to practitioners, which is a useful tool for every practicing lawyer." — Katri Paas-Mohando, Global Competition Litigation Review

"This is a work that every practitioner who may be faced with giving advice on vertical restraints in the EU should be familiar with. For the inexperienced, it provides a useful introduction, for the very experienced it provides a useful aide-memoire; and - more importantly - as a guidebook or road map it provides a useful step-by-step check list, which ensures that no oversights occur." — Dr Bruce Wardhaugh, European Competition Law Review
