^iRegulating Services in the European Union^r is a remarkable
achievement, for several reasons. First, it is a treasure trove of
quantitative information on all matters related to services in EU
law. ... Secondly, while the book gives the big picture especially
with regard to case law and legislation, it at the same time delves
deeply into some of the intricate sub-areas of services such as
health care and services of general economic interest. Moreover the
book broadens the perspective on what we commonly would expect of a
study with this title.
