Providing a more accessible alternative to historical commentaries and casebooks, Law Among Nations, 11th Edition, (PDF) describes issues of international law by tracing the field’s development and emphasizing key principles, processes, and landmark cases.
This all-inclusive text eliminates the need for multiple books by merging discussions of theory and state practice with extracts from landmark cases. The ebook has been updated in light of the continuing revolution in communication technology, the condensed web of linkages between countries that include individuals and bodies both formal and informal; and includes important and controversial areas like human rights, the environment, and issues linked with the use of force.
Well-known for its rigorous approach and clear explanations, Law Among Nations: An Introduction to Public International Law 11th Edition remains the gilded standard for undergraduate introductions to international law.
