*Clive S. Thomas, West European Politics*
Given the attention lavished on EU interest group politics, our sum
of knowledge regarding their impact on EU policy can seem meagre,
or at the very least, difficult to piece together. Those looking to
navigate this jungle would be wise to pick up David Coen and Jeremy
Richardson's edited volume, Lobbying the European Union... What
Lobbying the European Union does best is bring the policy process
back in...the contributor remind us that the forces at work in
policy-making are something that scholars around the world can
recognize, analyse and compare with those of other systems. This is
where the book makes a significant contribution, making it an
excellent read for the broader audience interested in waht we can
learn from how the EU system has matured as well as committed
lobbying geeks.
