This title brings clarity to international law that is occasionally missing from some specialist works, and a comprehensiveness which is always missing from basic introductions. It is unique in that it is written for a specifically Hong Kong readership. The third edition is updated and revised to incorporate the most recent developments in international law across a wide range of areas. Recent decisions from the International Court of Justice and other international and domestic tribunals have been added. The chapter on international law in Hong Kong law has also been revised to incorporate recent developments.
