"(PUBLICATION FIRST MARKED AS OUT OF PRINT 09/10/03)Whish: Competition Law introduces the reader to the competition law of the EC and the UK, describing the constituent parts of the law, analysing the way in which the law affects particular commercial phenomena, and explaining the economic context in which competition law operates.This new edition has been revised in line with the enormous changes in this complex field of law, both in the EC and the UK. Most notable amongst the many developments in the EC is Regulation 2790/99 and the accompanying Guidelines on Vertical Restraints which have dramatically changed the application of Article 81 of the EC Treaty to vertical agreements. Meanwhile changes in the UK have been even more fundamental, with the adoption of the Competition Act 1998 and the prospect of further changes to domestic competition law in the pipeline.Covering all the important developments in this area in a way which is comprehensive yet accessible, Whish: Competition Law will prove invaluable both to law and economic students as well as to practitioners and officials involved in competition law matters."

The writers' aim is to make A Level study of Law an enjoyable and stimulating experience. Therefore the book does not just describe the law, it discusses its practical workings, the theories on which it is based and the problems to which it gives rise. The study of law should also be exciting. Law is not just about rules; it is about argument, and throughout the text students are encouraged to consider the arguments that surround the controversial issues in the law.

Competition from ex- (or even current) employees is an increasingly common problem faced by employers in commerce and industry. Employers are now placing much greater emphasis on their legal rights and more practitioners are being asked to advise on such matters. This work sets out the law, practice and appropriate strategy from both the employer's and the employee's point of view. It covers all the stages from drawing up the contract, through what to do when a breach of contract appears to have taken place, to the available remedies. The emphasis is on the practical approach, giving checklists, flowcharts and precedents.

In the field of personal injury litigation, "structured settlements" are new legal technology. This text attempts to explain the workings of these settlements and to predict the outcome of the concept. What does the litigator have to do to bring this "technology" into action? When does he do it? How does this technology work? What are its component parts and how are they put together, and by whom? These are the questions which this book is designed to answer. The answers, however, can represent no more than the present state of this new and rapidly-developing field, as the concept of the structured settlement has not yet reached a final stage. As a result, the US experience is examined, offering a perspective of the route which may be followed in the UK. In examining the workings of structured settlements, the text seeks to examine the issue from different perspectives: from the viewpoints of the victim, of the victim's legal adviser, the "Exchequer", the Bar and the forensic accountant (whose role in the field of structured settlements is recognized in the relevant Practice Direction). This bringing together of a number of disciplines looking at a litigation problem from different angles (each representing, perhaps, different interests) has a bearing on the significance of structured settlements in the overall setting of personal injury litigation: such settlements cannot be imposed by the courts, they can only be achieved by consent. They benefit both sides. Thus, there is an incentive to both sides to work, if possible, in harmony with each other, rather than contentiously at arm's length.
