S. R. Silverburg, Choice 'Gustavo Gozzi has an ambitious and impressively far-reaching approach here [in this] study presented on the history and philosophy of international law ... [T]he focus is on an investigation into the history of ideas, which is carried out by a critical interpretation of current problems in international relations ... This creates a fruitful tension.'
