Reviews

'Reforming Antitrust is a delightfully detailed narrative of the policy topic du jour, drawing on first-hand experience and empirical evidence to bring to life the often academically wonkish field of Competition Law. Reflecting on the aspects of antitrust policy that have worked well over the past thirty years and explaining how an error cost framework could help antitrust policy work better, this book is a must-read for public policy makers and academics.' Elizabeth M. Bailey, NERA 'Well-written and engaging even to the lay reader, this new volume is a must-read for anyone interested in antitrust reform. Devlin charts a careful middle course between our current weakened system of antitrust enforcement and the calls for radical reform coming from many quarters today. This is a book with the potential to make the world a better place.' Mark A. Lemley, Stanford Law School
