`This volume of essays...is a fitting tribute to Francis Jacobs career...The quality of the contributions is high... The editors are to be congratulated on bringing together this team of contributors and organising the resulting material in a clear and coherent manner. Sir Francis Jacobs made a lasting and very valuable contribution to the development of EU law, and this is reflected in the essays in this volume.' Paul Craig, Public Law `This impressive collection of essays (which are mostly doctrinal in nature) succeeds in reflecting both continuity and change in the development of the European Union from 1988-2006 and also demonstrates the remarkable impact of A.G. Jacobs on EU law both through his Opinions and academic work. The book is clearly written throughout and well-edited by the co-editors who all served A.G. Jacobs at the Court as referendaires in his chambersThis book will be of considerable interest to academics, practitioners, officials of the institutions and students of EU law and contains many indicators of areas ripe for further research and future reform.'
