The book reads like it has been written by a lawyer who had an economist whispering in their ear. This second edition tackles the newest developments and conundrums in competition law enforcement, discussing recent high-profile cases such as Intel, Google and e-books, and issues raised by patent settlements, MFN clauses and minority interest acquisitions. With its clarity and simplicity the book is an excellent resource for every competition lawyer."(Please see publications list below for more reviews)James has served as expert in a variety of litigation and arbitration proceedings, and has experience of cross-examination in court.
