Reviews / Votes
'Few of us think twice about buying something online, indeed many of us prefer, or even demand it - but few of us think deeply about the legal infrastructure required to make this convenience a reality. In this work Lodder & Murray have collected leading experts in e-commerce and created a systematic review of the fundamental EU regulation. This collection is a must read for anyone serious about online trade, cyberlawyers, and students of business and law - in any jurisdiction.' -- Mathias Klang, Fordham University, US 'This systematic and useful commentary addresses the key pieces of EU legislation in the field of e-commerce, including the E-commerce Directive, the Services Directive, the Consumer Directive, the General Data Protection Regulation, and the eID Regulation. The commentary provides up-to-date analysis of decisions of the Court of Justice and the Commission, the latest directives and regulations in the field of e-commerce, and features detailed tables of cases and legislation. . . This is a concise guide, with a clear and accessible layout, to the regulations and issues relating to e-commerce, and will be useful for specialists, academics and advanced students alike.' -- Global Legal PostMore details
