Further Studies in International Law Summary

Further Studies in International Law by F. A. Mann (late Solicitor of the Supreme Court, London, Consultant to Herbert Smith & Co., London, Honorary Professor of Law, late Solicitor of the Supreme Court, London, Consultant to Herbert Smith & Co., London, Honorary Professor of Law, University of Bonn)

F.A. Mann is considered to be one of the finest British lawyers of the twentieth century, esteemed as an international jurist and as a practising solicitor. He combined a thriving and prestigious practice with a prolific output of writing and teaching, with much of his work centering on the inter-relationship of international and national law. This collection, first published in 1990, brings together seventeen of his essays and continues where the author's previous volume, Studies in International Law (OUP), left off in 1963. Topics covered include investment, arbitration, jurisdiction, and recognition of States.

Further Studies in International Law Reviews

each essay is marked by thye author's reudition and insight * American Journal of International Law *
It seems presumptuous, perhaps even superfluous, to "review" a volume of this quality. It is so clearly one that every legal library should have. This is a book that can be read with pleasure; humour is rare in the literature of international law. The publishers deserve our thanks for this handsome volume, which is a fitting tribute to Mann's undiminished energy and ability over the last quarter-century. * International and Comparative Law Quarterly *
Throughout this book Mann's approach is strongly analytical, direct, often provocative and always substantiated with ample case law. The selected topics are rarely merely academic but have great practical value too. Once grasped by the problems Mann introduces, the reader will be fully absorbed. The chapters on the limitations of State jurisdiction are probably the best ever written on this subject. Mann's analytical abilities bring the reader to a point that is beyond the reach of most other authors. * Netherlands International Law Review *
