Commissioner Ben Towne grieves the suicide of his brother, the end of his marriage, and the gnawing recognition that his world of high-level college hockey is as crooked as the war he saw in Kuwait. But on this February weekend, on the eve of another war, he chases a chance for redemption-a chance to take down Ryerson College and its head coach Ted Farnum, the man he believes destroyed his brother. Across a backdrop of vanishing evidence, personal danger, and thrilling hockey, Towne discovers bonds of grief, betrayal, and enlightenment with an unlikely ally in his fight against corruption in college sports.

The book reviews the evolution of labour law within the EU, analyses the distinct regional approaches to employment and welfare, and looks at the pressures for change within a further enlarged EU. The authors then provide a basic outline of employment law in each of the 28 member states, and in Turkey, Montenegro and Bosnia Herzegovina (all of whom are preparing for membership). In the six years since the second edition of this book was published in 2010 the economic consequences of the global financial crisis of 2008 onwards have forced many EU member states to revisit their labour laws, and attempt to make their labour markets more competitive while remaining in the EU framework. These changes have been incorporated into the third edition. The book identifies those areas where the law is unified by the enactment of European Directives, and regional differences which are potential pitfalls for employers with workers in more than one EU state. It is intended for HR persons, lawyers looking for basic knowledge, policymakers & lawmakers elsewhere in EU, and EU bodies.
