The volume's Chapters..contain more than thematically catalogued extracts from judicial decisions - they include learned introductions to the subject matter and commentaries on cases referred to, questions for discussion and bibliographies, which prompt readers to independently analyse the quoted texts and to undertake independent research of ICL..indispensable reading for all interested students or practitioners of ICL, irrespective of their professional background as lawyers from a common, civil, Islamic or other legal system.
Sergey Sayapin, Global Law Books
