Recensioner i media

'In this much awaited second edition, Van den Bossche and Prévost have again succeeded in providing an excellent and up-to-date overview of the core elements of WTO law, both institutional and substantive, in an accessible and systematic manner. It is without a doubt an essential source of introductory reading for new students of WTO law, as well as a key reference for more established lawyers in the field. A perfect complement to more extensive treatises of the subject.' Gracia Marín Durán, University College London
