This is an interesting book on an important and highly debated topic of consumer protection law and policy... the book will prove useful to anyone interested in the current state of the law in the area of unfair commercial practices, and it will contribute to the ongoing dialogue about the effectiveness of the existing fair trading law regime and the need for its future reform.
