European Union Law

Dadomo, Christian; Quenivet, Noelle

Abstract

European Union Law is written for students on LLB and GDL courses and aims to reflect developments in legal education.

The book fully explores the core areas of European Union law whilst setting them in a contextual and practical framework too. Its writing style is accessible to all.
Key cases are summarised and explained in discrete boxes whilst the law is abundantly illustrated with diagrams, tables, and other visual aids. To show how the law applies in reality, cases are presented and examined in separate boxes. At the end of each chapter, summaries enable students to remember the main relevant points and, to encourage them to engage further with the law, there are suggested reading lists.
