If [Free Trade Under Fire does] not change trade sceptics' minds, it is hard to think what else would."--Economist Praise for Princeton's previous editions: "[Irwin] sets out most of the anti-trade claims one by one ... and then marshals the evidence to show why it just ain't so... Compelling [and] cogent."--Wall Street Journal Praise for Princeton's previous editions: "[Irwin] successfully parries nearly all arguments leveled against free trade by its critics, and does so in an engaging style, which in itself makes for lively reading."--Gene Epstein, Barron's Praise for Princeton's previous editions: "Vigorous and persuasive... [Irwin] offers an especially informative chapter on antidumping duties, which have historically been supported in the name of ensuring 'fair trade.'"--Richard Cooper, Foreign Affairs
