Sven Norberg, Karin Hökborg, Martin Johansson, Dan Eliasson, and Lucien Dedichen, The European Economic Area EEA Law. A Commentary on the EEA Agreement, Stockholm: CE Fritzes AB (Kluwer) (1993) 878 pages, Index. $219 £136.

This short note cannot do justice to this encyclopedic work. The authors, all former members of the legal service of EFTA, have written a comprehensive, painstakingly detailed commentary on the EEA including its political and legislative history. It is remarkable in that it not only deals with the specifics of the EEA but given the principle of homogeneity of EC and EEA it contains a remarkable analysis of the internal market, including competition provisions, with detailed reference to the case-law of the ECJ. The institutional mechanisms, dispute resolution and cooperation outside the four freedoms are also treated exhaustively. This book is formidable and will be of value even if the future of the EEA as such is in some doubt.
