Good text

The majority of this text focuses on the pre-Chicago economics school of thought. This means that the majority of the cases are now overruled or obsolete/outlier cases. It gives you a great idea of the origins of antitrust law & the populist/public interest intents of earlier courts and congressmen. It really needs to focus more on current trends in antitrust approaches. I guess that's what the supplement is for. But at the end of the class, our Professor advised us on how to approach our final exam: "Everything you learned in the book, ignore. It's all wrong now." HA!
