Reviews

With its mix of analysis and prescription by a veritable Whos Who of European Union law, this is a must read for any serious student of European integration. Not only do the contributions place the Amsterdam Treaty in the context of preceding constitutional and legal developments, but they also suggest a possible course (or courses) for the future: Legal Issues of the Nice Treaty perhaps -- Catherine Redgwell * Law Quarterly Review *
Legal Issues of the Amsterdam Treaty is an ideal instrument for getting a proper account of the Amsterdam Treaty, the process leading to it and its implications the collection is an excellent reference for assessing the EU constitutional reforms and also for understanding the intricacies of an ever-more complex process. -- Christophe Hillion * Cambridge Law Journal *
