Critics Review
‘This book is a “must have” tool for all lawyers.’ – From the foreword by Maître Jean-Louis Dupont
‘Competition law has become the main arena in which the struggle between sporting autonomy and legal supervision is played out. This book provides an appealingly concise introduction to the structure and purpose of the EU’s rules, and offers much insight into sport’s often uneasy relationship with the law.’ – Stephen Weatherill, University of Oxford, UK
