Reviews

'The chapters in this thoroughly useful reference book on current developments and challenges in TLL provide very thoughtful, up-to-date and "to the point" commentary and insights.'
*Alan Boulton, Monash University and Fair Work Commission, Australia*

'The list of 41 authors of this Handbook reads like a roll-call of the rising generation of scholars of labour law as well as a number of distinguished old hands. This is not a conventional textbook on transnational labour law but a series of short and stimulating essays on important current issues. It provides an invaluable guide for all those who want to think and write about the transnational influences that shape the modern world of work.'
*Sir Bob Hepple QC FBA, University of Cambridge, UK*
