EU consumer law is the core of European civil law. In recent years,
in particular between the first edition of 2009 and this second
edition, it has been subject to spectacular decisions by the Court
of Justice of the European Union, with significant consequences for
Member States' law. This revised and thoroughly updated new edition
follows and analyses this process in such important areas as unfair
commercial practices, unfair terms, cross-border consumer
protection, and product liability. There has been legislation in
the area of consumer rights in distance and off-premise contracts,
and very recently consumer ADR and ODR. Other projects are still in
the pipeline, e.g. mortgage credit; another is subject to heated
controversy, namely the proposed optional Common European Sales Law
with an important part on consumer law. Even more importantly, the
very concept of consumer and consumer protection has been subject
to intense debate. Does EU law limit itself to the 'informed
consumer standard', or should the 'weaker' or even the 'vulnerable
consumer standard' be given more attention? The original team of
authors Hans W.- Micklitz, Norbert Reich and Peter Rott have been
strengthened by the addition of Klaus Tonner. They have worked
together to take a broad horizontal approach to the EU consumer law
acquis, thereby reflecting on the history, achievements, recent
trends and also shortcomings of EU law in this important field of
law. The change from 'minimum' to 'full' or 'targeted
harmonisation' is critically analysed, and the central role of the
CJEU documented and emphasised.'This book, distilling insight from
a much longer volume originally in German, offers a clear and
authoritative survey of EU law developments.'Luke Nottage in
Australian Journal of Competition and Consumer Law (2016)About the

accomplishment.'Marco B.M. Loos in 2011 ZEuP 447
