? The Hon. Michael Kirby AC CMG This splendid book performs the
heroic task of introducing readers to the large canvas of the
commercial law of the European Union (EU). The EU began as an
economic community of six nations but has grown into 27 member
states, sharing a signi?cant political, social and legal cohesion
and serving almost 500 million citizens. It generates approximately
30% of the nominal gross world product. The EU is a remarkable
achievement of trans-national co-operation, given the history
(including recent history) of national, racial, ethnic and
religious hatred and con?ict preceding its creation. Although, as
the book recounts, the institutions of the EU grew directly out of
those of the European Economic Community, created in 1957 [1.20],
the genesis of the EU can be traced to the sufferings of the Second
World War and to the disclosure of the barbarous atrocities of the
Holocaust. Out of the chaos and ruins of historical enmities and
the shattered cities and peoples that survived those terrible
events, arose an astonishing pan- European Movement.
