'For several decades, Professor Merrills' book has been the standard reference text in the field of international dispute settlement, and that is bound to continue with the publication of the seventh edition with the co-authorship of Professor Eric De Brabandere. Merrills' International Dispute Settlement offers an excellent introduction to this fascinating field and provides many useful insights into the resolution of international disputes by diplomacy, international adjudication and the workings of international and regional organisations. It is quite simply an indispensable text for scholars, practitioners and students of public international law.' Chester Brown, The University of Sydney 'The new edition of International Dispute Settlement by Merrills and De Brabandere is most welcome. It provides a comprehensive account of the numerous developments in this area, as well as the pitfalls of the field. It also offers a refined and transversal account of the role of consent, and of the many jurisdictional and procedural issues that arise before international courts and tribunals. International Dispute Settlement is a must-have reference work for academics, students and practitioners dealing with dispute settlement.' Laurence Boisson de Chazournes, University of Geneva, and Director of the Geneva Center for International Dispute Settlement (CIDS) 'This text is a wonderful resource for students, scholars and practitioners alike. Its extensive and updated analysis of key international dispute mechanisms, as well as key controversies, makes a significant contribution to the field of international law, as well as international relations.' Michelle Burgis-Kasthala, University of Edinburgh
