The book presents an extremely valuable effort to cover the increasingly important ground of legislative drafting and to synthetize the essentials and recent developments of the legislative scholarship in Europe. Not only legislation scholars and experts will profit from such an effort: even more importantly, those lawyers who still confine their interest to the description and interpretation of legislation as a product may well learn in this treatise why the making and drafting of laws offers a promising field for legal research.

Klaus Meßerschmidt and Daniel Oliver-Lalana, European Review of Public Law

This is a new and fascinating book. It deserves many readers – who it will both challenge and reward.

Georg Müller, LeGes

...an ambitious and important scientific handbook, which is addressed at scholars and practitioners…at the European level it closes a gap and will find special attention due to its transnational perspective…it adds to many national Drafting Manuals in at least 2 directions: by its comparative nature as well as inclusion of legisprudence discussions…All in all: a handbook, of which one wishes to see further and expanded editions, that presents plenty of information, suggestions and scientific discoveries for readers all over Europe.
