Theodore Konstadinides, Division of Powers in European Union Law: The Delimitation of Internal Competence between the EU and the Member States (The Hague: Kluwer Law International, 2009) xiv þ 333 pp., ISBN 9789041126153, hb, GBP 96 The European Union (EU) has been a considerable success for post-war Europe; it is its biggest achievement and hope for better future for its citizens.
