Reviews
'This is an excellent and illuminating text, cases and materials book on European Company Law. The careful selection of extracts from bibliography, case law, legislation and other materials as well as the author's insightful analysis and explanatory comments assist the reader in understanding clearly and in-depth some intriguing areas of European company law. A real strength of this textbook is its comprehensive and profound analysis of the most important areas of European company law. Apart from an excellent textbook addressed to both undergraduate and postgraduate students, this book is an invaluable reading for academics, practitioners and policy makers. It is a highly recommended textbook constituting a reliable resource on European Company Law.' Thomas Papadopoulos, University of Cyprus
'Nicola De Luca's book represents a fundamental contribution to the development of European company law studies. This innovative book breaks the mould and stands alongside those of a few other pioneers, who examine European company law in a modern key as the law of the Union and of the States, fostering a dialogue between scholars and practitioners that has now become inescapable.' Andrea Vicari
'The book provides students, practitioners and academicians with a comprehensive account of the corporate legislation in the EU. In dissecting - from its Treaties down to the 'soft law' - the European legislation, the book is generous in providing the reader with the applicable case law and major contributions in the relevant area of law. The numerous EU Company Directives passed in the last decades in this area, represent the trajectory of the structure through which the Author progresses in this very exhaustive analysis of corporate legislation. Published nearly in coincidence with the conclusion of the Brexit process, the book approaches the different topics with a coherent, yet original, Continental English which, prospectively, may become the lingua franca of the 'UK-free' European Union.' Pierre de Gioia Carabellese
'De Luca's European Company Law has become a standard book for students and scholars approaching company law issues under an EU perspective. It is an extremely valuable and inspiring source of ideas, which offers a comprehensive overview of company law harmonizing measure and the impact of EU law on domestic rules and principles.' Federico M. Mucciarelli
