There's no introductory essay, so after brief description of the credentials of the nine editors and approximately 60 contributing authors, the first chapter starts right in with Albania. Subsequent chapters, arranged alphabetically, cover 61 more countries, ending with Vietnam. Each chapter reviews obligation of notification--e.g. relation of thresholds to substantive analysis, potentially covered transactions, exemptions or special rules, extraterritoriality criteria; timing--deadline for filing, waiting periods, ability of relevant agencies to "stop the clock"; fundamentals--laws and substantive merger control provisions, authorities and responsibilities, fees; process and tests; investigatory powers and actions; merger remedies; appellate rights and judicial review; private enforcement actions; statistics; and the latest developments.
