"An extremely important text for both students looking to study international commercial arbitration or lawyers who are finding their way through this area of law. It is packed full of practical information and useful links. Its layout and written style is also extremely accessible meaning difficult principles are clearly explained. Its price, at being less than £30, also makes it excellent value for money and a mandatory issue to all junior international commercial arbitration lawyers" - Student Law Journal

"A significant volume of useful information and thoughtful suggestions for an important area of the law that is difficult to research effectively and considered a daunting challenge for many young and not-so-young attorneys...It would be a worthwhile addition to the commercial arbitration collections in law school and international law firm libraries... a useful volume, well organised and informative" - David A. Gantz, University of Arizona, Int. T.L.R. 2009, 15(5), 164-165
