'A skilful analysis, rigorous method and neat style mark this book's first decade in print. Further elaborating on his distinctive theory of the “dual approach” to ocean matters in a thought-provoking manner, Tanaka continues to provide key explanatory arguments and fully reliable guidance throughout both old and novel intricacies of the law of the sea.' Ilaria Tani, University of Milano-Bicocca

'In this book, scholars and practitioners will find not only a rigorous commentary on established rules and case law, but also a careful analysis of problematic profiles and an authoritative assessment of both trends in the practice of states and new interests of the international community. This is an indispensable guide to navigating this intricate and fascinating subject.' Roberto Virzo, University of Messina

This new edition has been revised and updated to provide current and comprehensive coverage of essential issues of the international law of the sea in a systematic manner. This book presents two paradigms of the law of the sea: the law of divided oceans and the law of our common ocean. It covers contemporary issues, such as protection of the marine biological diversity, marine plastic pollution, the Arctic, and impacts of climate change on the oceans. Following the clear and accessible approach of previous editions, with many illustrations and tables, The International Law of the Sea continues to help students to best understand the law of the sea.
