Summary "The second edition of Antitrust Economics provides a treatment of the economic theory that both motivates and (to varying degrees) guides the design and enforcement of the antitrust laws of the United States. Citing relevant legislation and court cases, the text offers an analysis of both the horizontal and vertical antitrust issues and uses economic theory to evaluate antitrust policy throughout."--BOOK JACKET
