Table of ContentsPreface To The First Edition Preface To The Seventh Edition 1: The Origins of International Law 2: The Basis of Obligation In International Law 3: The Legal Organization of International Society 4: States 5: The Territory of States 6: Jurisdiction 7: Treaties 8: International Disputes and the Maintenance of International Peace and Security 9: Resort to ForceReviews...an inspired and very impressive work indeed...If the chief qualities that made Brierly stand out were its straightforward and fluent prose, a balanced choice of topics discussed, and above the hopeful and humane - yet unfailingly sober - assessment of the role of international law in the world community by which the analysis was underlain, then these qualities have been admirably preserved and in fact honed to perfection. Eirik Bjorge, Law Quarterly Review The excellence of these new editions of Brierly and Brownlie is unquestionable. Both student and hardened old-hand - and those in between - will find much in them that is challenging and memorable. This reflects the extraordinary abilities of both the original authors and the new editors. The books are also, as before, complementary (and will continue to be found as close companions on the library bookshelf). Anyone coming new to international law who reads both will acquire a rounded picture of the modern role and rules of public international law. Each is highly recommended, indeed essential for any law library. Given their competitive price, they are also suitable additions for any private collection of public international law books.
