Don't be misled by the simplicity
I sometimes like this shorter books but not this one. At first I thought that it was the best thing that had ever happened to me in my inability to get to grips with EU law but all the things that I thought I understood I later found that I didn't really because they were all explained in far too simplistic terms. You know there is a difference between simplifying complicated ideas so that you present them in easy to understand terms (which is a good thing if it is done well) and giving the appearance of simplifying things by leaving out all the tricky bits (which is a very very bad thing as it is really misleading). This book gave me a really false sense that I understood the topic but you try taking what this book tells you and writing an essay on the basis of it and you will find that it just doesn't work. It is a bit like trying to understand why a plane stays in the air. If someone tells you that it is because of the design of the wings and to do with air pressure than you can grasp that because it is a very simple explanation but it does not mean that you understand aerodynamic theory. This is exactly what this book does - it feeds you simple statements so that you think that you understand something but it is so over simplified that you understand virtually nothing and that is dangerous

Excellent companion to EU case law
Brilliant book,explains cases briefly in a no-nonsense way, picks up most vital aspects of cases and avoids all useless arguments.
