Reviews

‘Insider trading, among all topics in securities regulation, has generated an extensive discourse with far greater heat than light. Steve Bainbridge has performed a valued public service by putting together the best in the legal literature with this volume. Hopefully, going forward, with this endeavor the heat/light quotient will be impacted, if not reversed.’
– Roberta Romano, Yale Law School, US

‘Insider Trading contains a superb collection of articles – providing an excellent overview of insider trading from both a theoretical and historical perspective. The book should prove quite useful for academicians and students desiring a collection of a variety of insightful sources in one volume.’
