(This new edition casebook excels at communicating a sense...)
This new edition casebook excels at communicating a sense of how antitrust law affects both business decisions and lawyerly practice. It addresses the initial difficulty that most students experience in understanding how the different statutes, doctrinal developments, and economic issues fit together to form a reasonably coherent picture. The authors achieve this by presenting a set of overview materials that provide a clear road map and useful perspectives. The Third Edition of Antitrust Law includes more lower court cases and more "real-world" material such as jury instructions. Although the text is sparing in its presentation of economic models, the authors have also integrated important economics into every part of the text. This casebook shows how a few simple models, as well as more general implications of social-science thinking, yield important insights and also wield much influence in antitrust jurisprudence. The Third Edition includes an expanded use of clarifying visual-aid exhibits to help students better understand complex issues in law as well as economics.

(The materials in this book do not presume any prerequisit...)
The materials in this book do not presume any prerequisite level of economic knowledge; the important conceptual tools are introduced gradually and applied to a series of increasingly sophisticated problems. Yet the technical economics involved never rise above a very modest level that is soon amply accessible to anyone who merely perseveres. The cases, problems, and textual matter have been selected to teach those important economic concepts with wide applicability in law. The substantive areas of application are primarily illustrative and do not pretend to survey the depth and breadth of contemporary law and economics scholarship.

(The new edition of the casebook, which welcomes Thomas A....)
The new edition of the casebook, which welcomes Thomas A. Lambert as a co-author, remains true to its original goals, in that it: • focuses more than other texts on lower-court interpretations and application of antitrust principles, minimizing the importance of older “classic cases” from the Supreme Court except to the extent they influence antitrust today • makes use of materials from actual cases and real-life situations, materials such as complaints, expert reports, pleadings and jury instructions • exposes the sorts of problems encountered (indeed, sometimes created) by lawyers who do not necessarily specialize in antitrust, but work in contract-related areas where antitrust concerns must be part of the attorney’s planning and drafting • emphasizes that modern antitrust continues to evolve as a branch of applied microeconomics, but also that the learning required to be economically literate is neither as complicated nor as lengthy as presented in other texts • is geared for a one-semester course by presenting the antitrust basics in an economical way, omitting material that pads many other texts but which an instructor typically will not have time to cover • makes available to instructors adopting the text a large set of visual-aid slides prepared specially for this book.
