'This book offers a comprehensive understanding on the critically important topic of leniency in Asian competition law.' D. Daniel Sokol, Carolyn Craig Franklin Chair Professor in Law and Business, Gould School of Law, University of Southern California 'Leniency has already achieved remarkable success in eliciting confessions from cartel participants; nevertheless, leniency programs across the globe have not converged, with markedly different scorecards among countries. Getting out of this impasse requires case studies, together with solid theoretical inquiries. This book, the first large-scale study on leniency in Asia, presents a refreshing answer to this challenge. It is a pleasure to read this meticulously constructed book, with a sharply focused introduction, followed by countries' case studies, not only of Asia (including China) but also of the pioneering US and EU, conducted by first-rate scholars in each country.' Toshiaki Takigawa, Professor Emeritus, Faculty of Law, Kansai University, Osaka
