The Law and Economics of Enforcing European Consumer Law
This book offers a comparative law and economics analysis of the changing landscape of EU consumer law enforcement policy now that EU member states are moving away from purely public or private law enforcement towards a more mixed approach. The book reflects on the need for efficient enforcement designs and examines the economic factors according to which the efficiency of different enforcement mechanisms can be assessed. A variety of hypothetical case scenarios are considered to illustrate various consumer law problems and the findings are used to assess real life situations in countries with different enforcement traditions.

Damages in EU Public Procurement Law
The book surveys the enforcement of EU law through the lens of damages claims for violations of EU public procurement rules.

The second part focuses on comparative law, covering England, France, Germany and the Netherlands, and provides an overview of national regulation and case law of damages litigation in the area of public procurement. A third part discusses the constitutive and quantification criteria of the damages remedy from a comparative and EU law perspective.

Organic Synthesis with Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates offer a ready source of enantiomerically pure starting materials. They have been used for the imaginative synthesis of a wide range of compounds, and have been found to be effective chiral auxiliaries which enable the introduction of a range of functionalities in a highly enantioselective manner. In a subject dominated by volumes at research and professional level, this book provides a broad understanding of the use of carbohydrates in organic synthesis, at postgraduate student level. Emphasis is placed on retrosynthetic analysis, with discussion of why a particular synthetic route has been chosen, and mechanistic explanations are provided for key and novel reactions. Wherever possible, the authors highlight points of general significance to organic synthesis. Selected experimental conditions and reaction details are incorporated to ensure that information can be utilised in research. The book is extensively referenced and so provides a convenient point of entry to the primary literature.
