By any measure, the book is a substantial achievement, and it will be widely and rewardingly consulted for many years to come. Jacob Katz Cogan, University of Cincinnati, American Journal of International Law Impressive and timely volume Rose Parfitt, Global Law Books The volume does a marvelous job of hemming the topic in, but pays a price for its breadth and the erudition of its contributors by leaving the reader ungratefully greedy for further contextualization and (historical) policy detail - sparking this hunger in the reader though is a true vindication of a handbook of this sort. Wouter P. F. Schmit Jongbloed, ASIL Cables The Oxford Handbook of the History of International Law innovatively and comprehensively provides a timely and ambitious global history of international law from the sixteenth century to the mid-twentieth century. Under the skilled editorship of Bardo Fassbender and Anne Peters, the contributors, experts who themselves come from all parts of the world, present a history that imagines international law as the product of different regions, cultures, actors, and eras. Setting a new agenda for the field, the Handbook will be the indispensable starting point for students and researchers exploring the history of international law. ASIL Award Citation There is no doubt that i The Oxford Handbook of the History of International Law r will become what editors and authors intended, the new standard reference work for the global history of international law, provides the reader with a broad spectrum of useful information on a high level which is not easily assembled.
