-Mr Grosse and Mr Luger have produced an excellent and really commendable book. o...! I feel inclined to characterise this as one of the most successful books of its kind I have seen.- (Jacob Kornbeck, Europe Plurilingue)
-...the book must be considered an important and ground-breaking work in European studies. Its straightforward, meticulous style provides students of Europe, particularly France and Germany, invaluable information concerning these two important, if not most crucial, European nations today.- (Gary Anderson, German Politics)
