Product Description

Product Description
"Textbook on EC Law" is one of the leading textbooks in this area, providing a single book of manageable size which covers all the major areas of EC Law - constitutional, administrative, as well as substantive. The success of this approach, both at home and abroad, is reflected in the fact that this eighth edition is appearing only fifteen years after the first. The new edition is in response to far reaching changes taking place in the legal arena, and in the way the subject is being taught in law schools today. .

From the Publisher
This edition is now out-of-date. For the 9th edition of this title, the book has been retitled 'EU Law', and the authors are Josephine Steiner, Lorna Woods and Christian Twigg-Flesner. If you are interested in this title, please search for the new, 9th edition.

4.0 out of 5 stars a good law book for the law student PgDL or LLB, 21 Sep 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Textbook on EC Law, 7th Ed. (Paperback)
The authors of this book have put together a very thorough and easy to understand book on the ohterwise difficult/ different stance that EC law places on us in the UK - i found this book to be easy to read and that it emphasised the points rather clearly. A good book for any law student embarking along the EC law pathway

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended textbook for all law students, 25 Jul 2006
Being a subject area of law that I have thoroughly detested, I think I owe a lot of gratitude to this book for getting me through this subect with a first class score of 70%. Despite negative reviews, and ridicule at its simplicity, it is precisely its simplicity and lack of drivel that allowed me to get my head around the concepts of EU law and is possibly one of its greatest achievements. Whilst I recognise the Craig de Burca commendable reputation, facing 150-300 pages of reading this book prior to a tutorial left me feeling deflated before I started and slightly intimidated!

I initally failed this subject due to ill health, I subsequently had to take a 'sit without residence' and for 12 months had to study the subject alone with no tutor or lecture input. The fact that I achieved a score of 70% this summer I consider to be significantly due to the Textbook on EU Law. It is clear, and topics are easily identifiable. The case law is detailed where neccessary but it does not cover ECJ judgements pages and pages long uneccessarily or make up half a page of footnotes! There are some areas of substantive law that are vague or not included, the book focuses on the fundamental areas and is upto date with current law developments.

I think there is a misconception with regards to knowledge of detail but my philosophy is that in order to understand the detail, you have to know the concepts first and this is a first class book that does that. If you want detail the cases and materials book on the subject is a good addition. The examiners are marking on understanding of concepts first and foremost. I really enjoyed reading this book (well as far as you can say enjoy reading a law textbook) and would highly recommend it to anyone studying the subject.

Obviously, Univeristies are different in their syllabuses, in my syllabus, there was nothing that was not covered in this book - be sure if considering buying it to briefly look at the contents page to ensure this is the same for you. Enjoy.

4.0 out of 5 stars This book is one of the best guidebooks for a newcomer., 19 Jun 2003
By A Customer
When I was a student of a British university,
I found this book very useful to skim the subject.
I think it is important for a newcomer to precisely understand
basic ideas and absorb fundamental knowledge before going forward. From this pointview, this is one of the best guidebooks. In fact, I managed to receive a degree from the unversity because of this book.
