A good summary in the overall. A bit lumpy to read in my opinion, too many lists, to many schemes. It can be a little difficult to read for students unfamiliar with EU law but it's definitly worth the price, if the missing chapters will be filled it could deserve even more.

Hi, the document info were wrong. It said the whole book was summarized, but that's not true. Some chapters are missing, and not a few.

Hi Fabio, good point. I did include the table of contents in the preview pages to prevent this misunderstanding from occurring, so this could have been noticed. The chapters that are missing were not part of my study content. I'll adjust it right away. Hopefully the other chapters are of use to you and good luck with your exam.
