Reviews

'This fourth edition of Aust's Modern Treaty Law and Practice is thoroughly updated and revised in light of developments over the last ten years, including Brexit. It has much that is new and illuminating, including on 'nonbinding instruments', reservations, provisional application and jus cogens. The new author, Jeremy Hill, has retained the 'Aust-spirit'; the book remains as accessible as ever.' Sir Michael Wood, KCMG, KC 'Jeremy Hill's deep expertise and safe hands guide us through a much needed refresh to an essential desk guide for anyone involved or interested in the treaty drafting and making process. At a time of growing nationalism, this book is a timely reminder of how interconnected and interdependent our world is, and the role of treaties to help address global challenges that transcend boundaries.' Rashmin Sagoo, Director of the International Law Programme, Chatham House
