Reviews

The best multi-author textbook on the market. Up-to-date and relevant, with leading contributors. * Michael Waibel, Professor of International Law, University of Vienna * Consistently excellent. . . . Its regular renewal, with newly conscripted chapters and insights, keeps matters current. An intellectual trove for my students. * Dino Kritsiotis, Professor of Public International Law and Co-Director of the Nottingham International Law & Security Centre, University of Nottingham * Provides a critical, up-to-date, modern analysis of issues in international law. Very easy to read. * Tawhida Ahmed, Reader in Law, The City Law School *
