Review

'Here is a detailed treatment of the new Technology Transfer Regulation which was recently adopted by the European Commission.'

'This monograph is the sixth by Korah on one of the block exemption Regulations. Her readership will be pleased that the book follows in the same tradition as its predecessors, providing a scholarly account of the Regulation 240/96. The book is written in her usual succinct style with detailed
cross-referencing so the reader is pointed to other relevant (numbered) paragraphs, making it an excellent "dip-and-mix" read...Footnoting is impressive as is the range of references to secondary sources...her attention to clarity pays dividends with each provision and recital being given headings.
Her pithy conclusion, despite her claim that one is not necessary, provides a very neat summary of the main strengths and weaknesses of the Regulation. As ever, Korah delivers what she has promised with clarity and thoroughness.'

'This book is a thorough investigation of the legal issues raised by the new regulation and is of primary importance to the competition law specialist. It is a masterly work from the doyenne of competition law...Professor Korah has produced not only a work of primary value to the competition
law practitioner, but also a monograph of great scholarly worth - an increasingly rare combination...An important feature of the book is the excellence of the cross-referencing. It is an indication of the author's command of her subject that most of this cross-referencing is incorporated in the
text, making the text extremely useful as a work of reference.' John Huntley, Senior Lecturer in Law, University of Strathclyde in the Edinburgh Law Review Vol.2 1998
