critical way the various aspects in which health care and European
legislation have become intertwined. The Belgian EU Presidency is
to be praised for taking the initiative and revitalising the
debate; the authors for providing a well documented basis for
assessing that debate.» (Jos Berghman, Professor of Social Policy,
