Great!, 17 Mar 2008
Looking for a comprehensive book on the 'four freedoms'? This is ideal!
It had the depth of knowledge that I needed for an essay and the layout is good for finding just what you need easily. It was a comfortable read in a subject that can be a bit confusing, or a little 'dry'. I don't think you can go far wrong.

Incoherent at times, 18 Nov 2008
This books is very informative but the style isn't the least bit engaging. It jumps around from case to case plucking points seemingly at random, and the authors belabour certain points to death. The way it separates information into chapters, sections and subsections does not seem logical in the least bit and is at complete odds with the way my lecture notes is laid out.
To be fair to the authors, EC law is a load of BS in general given that none of the ECJ's cases are binding precedents. This was confirmed when I cross-referenced cases from lectures, cases from another text and cases in this book. There was a stunning lack of overlap between the sources, and authors could pick from any number of sources to illustrate a point or principle.
But overall, not a student-friendly read.
ideal for EU lawyer transfer exams in UK, 18 Sep 2008
This comprehensive book gives you ALL you need to know about the history, system, institutions, freedoms, competition regulation etc of the EU. I used it as the base for my EU solicitor transfer exam and I didn't require any other textbook. If you only want to get an overview, this book is probably too much as it is very detailed.
Only because I had to buy it, 10 Dec 2006
This book is just VERY confusing. It spouts case after case without any real explanation. I've found it takes away from what I learn in my lectures (which I have actually enjoyed a lot!). Out of all my textbooks/casebooks for this year (contract, public and criminal law being the others) I have found this to be the most useless of all and hardest to read without falling asleep. The fact that I'm here two weeks before my EU law exam desperately searching for a revision guide to save me from failing isn't a great sign. But to be fair EU law can be hard to put down into words and, saying that, it has provided me with *some* information I suppose, so I've given it three out of five. It could just be a LOT clearer, if there wasn't so much waffle and pointless writing!

A good point of reference., 28 Mar 2004
This book covers much of the information, required on today's LL.B and LL.M courses. The references to the case law are very good and questions asked at the end of each reference point, draw the reader to the fact that there is more to do than just 'reading' the text. The cases are well summarised and often, it is not always necessary to read the full case, as the relevant points and judgments are all clearly marked. A very well laid out book, with ample commentary, obviously written in a modern context.
