'A very useful compilation of major, authoritative and well selected academic writings on the International Court of Justice that offers an introduction to the academic literature as well as to the jurisprudence.'--Alain Pellet, French Society for International Law 'With typical erudition and insight, Professor Schabas has navigated an extensive field of literature, spanning almost nine decades and including the work of over 50 authors from a diverse range of theoretical and professional backgrounds, to curate this far-reaching collection of essays. This collection is essential reading for those wishing to understand the complex historical, legal, political and procedural issues that underpin the operation and jurisprudence of the International Court of Justice today.'--Yvonne McDermott Rees, Swansea University, UK
