Recenzii
...will undoubtedly shape the agenda for further research in this field.
We are much indebted to Hart Publishing. So far as I am aware, no books dealing with consumer insolvency have previously been published in this country, and we now have two [Comparative Consumer Insolvency Regimes and Consumer Bankruptcy in Global Perspective] launched in the same month. And they are in many respects complementary, even to the point of having cross-references to each other, as well as being especially timely, in view of the reforms to the law of bankruptcy in England and Wales effected by the Enterprise Act 2002 The two books are a rich source of comparative study extending over a wide range of jurisdictions. These well-researched and informative books make most interesting reading and are to be commended to general as well as specialist readers.
