...[This] book provides the type of scholarship we need in order to better understand the EU. Vasilis Margaras, EU Observer The book is written by well-regarded academics and practitioners. In this respect, the book has an added value since it not only mentions theory but also explains the real day-to-day politics of the EU. Vasilis Margaras, EU Observer Given its ability to condense key information about the EU in an easy to absorb format plus the detailed reading lists and references provided make this a 'go to' book for the beginner or policy-oriented student.Alexandra Cirone, European Union Studies Association Review
