"'Those who are skeptical about the existence and power of international law should read Fichtelberg’s book. Arguing more from various examples of international law, rather than from abstract and questionable principles, he will convince many of these skeptics to abandon their cause. Believers will also profit by reading his book. They will come away with a better understanding of their own views on international law.' Nick Fotion, Emory University, Atlanta, USA 'For forty odd years I have made a living teaching, writing about and sometimes even doing international law. Yet I have been consistently haunted and taunted by those who deny that the subject is ""real"". Fichtelberg slays all the dragons that I have encountered in a lifetime - and then some. Spot on!' Roger S. Clark, Rutgers School of Law, USA '...[this book] offers both a good overview and a strong argument as to why we should spend less time focusing on theory and more examining the law as it should be...a valuable addition to the literature.' Law Society Journal 'Recommended. Upper-division undergraduate through professional collections. CHOICE"
