Overview
Whereas most books on arbitration concentrate either on a particular national law or set of arbitration rules, this handbook combines descriptions of arbitration proceedings in various key jurisdictions with commentaries on the most important international rules and conventions. All chapters are written by practitioners and give both a thorough overview and an in-depth insight into specific issues affecting arbitration around the world.

This book is a significant contribution to international commercial arbitration Dr Saleem Sheikh, International Company and Commercial Law Review A concise general introduction into the law of International arbitration is - in a nutshell - hidden in the handbook here...Already the first edition of the handbook had passed its market text. There can be hardly any doubt that this second edition all the more, will stand its market ground. The advantages this handbook offers are obvious. Concise, short descriptions of the relevant problems and their solutions are fitted with ample references to other, more detailed sources. The editor deserves congratulations to have been able to gather such a large group of renowned practitioners and scholars and succeed in persuading them to deliver their manuscripts in time.
