Reviews

'The book Asian Perspectives on International Investment Law, edited by Junji Nakagawa, offers fresh and essential reading on the changing landscape of international investment law in Asia. Asian countries have been actively engaged regional rule-making in international investment law as illustrated by the ASEAN Comprehensive Investment Agreement, China-Japan-Korea Trilateral Investment Agreement, and the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific (CPTPP) investment chapter. The book, in particular, provides a thorough explanation of the major factors that put Asian countries to new directions in international investment rule-making and dispute settlement. The editor is to be congratulated not only on his selection of authors but also on the speed with which they have taken them from conference presentation to book chapter.' - Julien Chaisse, Professor, Faculty of Law, Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) and Advisory Board Member, Asian Academy of International Law (AAIL)
