Books on Antitrust

A good friend of mine, Ming, asked me to recommend a couple of books on the topic of Antitrust. Here's my list:

For Antitrust Law in General

1) Dick Ponser, Antitrust Law, 2nd edition, U of Chicago Press.

2) Herbert Hovenkamp, The Antitrust Enterprise: Principle and Execution, Harvard U Press.

4) Massimo Motto, Competition Policy: Theory and Practice, Cambridge U Press.

5) Keith Hylton, Antitrust Law: Economic Theory and Common Law Evolution, Cambridge U Press.

For Public Choice Perspective

6) Bill Shughart, Antitrust Policy and Interest Group Politics, Quorum Press.

7) Fred McChesney and Bill Shughart edited, The Causes and Consequences of Antitrust: The Public Choice Perspective, U of Chicago Press.

For Austrian Perspective

8) Dominick Armentano, Antitrust and Monopoly, Independent Institute.

For Textbook Treatment
