Bogen giver et aktuelt overblik over EU-politik af særlig betydning for små og mellemstore virksomheder. Den påpeger problemer, der bør løses, og anviser nogle midler dertil, mens den på den anden side set også anerkender positive resultater af EUs lovgivning og politik på en række områder. Bogen afspejler i vid udstrækning synspunkter, der på EU-plan repræsenteres af UEAPME, den europ. organisation for håndværk og små og mellemstore virksomheder samt af Håndværksrådet. Bogen, der er på engelsk, vil også være egnet til anvendelse på visse danske skoler og læreanstalter samt blandt journalister, politikere og erhvervsorganisationer. Bogen synes at være den eneste på markedet om det pågældende emne.
