Recensioner i media

'. . . this is probably the most balanced, informed and comprehensive treatment of US and Western European agricultural policy now in print. I would recommend it both as a reference and a text. . . It is well informed, well-executed and reasonably accessible to most students and interested readers, and deserves a wide audience.'
