Antitrust Law In Perspective: Cases, Concepts And Problems In Competition Policy, 2003 (American Casebook Series)

This casebook emphasizes the central role of concepts such as market power, efficiency, entry, and the boundaries of modern "competition policy." Includes accessible narrative material, as well as charts, tables and figures to enable in-class teaching. The book presents the economics students need to know to practice antitrust today simply and clearly, and integrates economic thinking throughout. Almost every chapter concludes with problems and exercises that develop lawyering skills, as well as deepen the understanding of antitrust principles.

This casebook is yet another testament to the genius of Prof. Jonathan Baker, a true guru of antitrust law. The book provides a detailed and comprehensive overview of the relevant concepts, tying them together with case studies. It is a great resource for law school students wishing to gain a solid understanding of antitrust concepts and analysis, also providing them with historical background, underlying economic theories, and policy perspectives.

After two years in law school, it is refreshing to use such a well-organized, comprehensive casebook. I have the additional pleasure of learning the subject from one of the authors. Professor Gavil conveys the same passion and clarity for the subject in the classroom as he does in this book. Definitely a great investment, and I would even suggest as a study aid to those law students unfortunate enough to be using another casebook! Good luck in law school.
