Foreword

FOREWORD

The Section of Antitrust Law of the American Bar Association is

pleased to publish this second edition of Antitrust Law and Economics of

Product Distribution. The sale of products is at the heart of virtually every

aspect of antitrust. Antitrust practitioners must be cognizant of both the

law and economics of product distribution, each of which have evolved

significantly since the first edition was published in 2006.

This edition of the book was prepared by a working group, headed by

James Langenfeld, Quentin Wittrock, and Ted Banks. The Section

appreciates the experience, expertise, and effort of the editors and chapter

authors who contributed to this totally revised edition of Antitrust Law and

Economics of Product Distribution. It is certain to be an extremely helpful

resource to all practitioners who deal with the sale of products.
