`Review from previous edition ...a comprehensive work dealing with virtually all aspects of telecommunications law and regulation in Europe and particularly in the United Kingdom. ...it perfectly serves practitioners as a reference work and source of understanding. ...serves as a very
competent and up-to-date source of information to telecommunications lawyers and representatives of the telecommunication industry throughout the world.'
CTLR : The Journal of E-Commerce, Technology and Communications, Vol. 8, Issue 4, May 2002
`This book, which has its genesis in the University of London's telecommunications LLM course, makes a notoriously difficult area of the law accessible to all, without sacrificing the depth of analysis that is required by practitioners and serious academics...On any analysis, this book is an
essential purchase for telecommunications and communications lawyers, including practitioners, academics and students...the second edition reads much better than the first, giving the feel of a more homogenised work. Overall, this is an excellent book.'
