Reviews

"Nappert focuses on providing insights into the development of the new Rules and the rationale for the changes. The comparative table of the old and new Rules emphasizes the parts of the text that are unique to each set of Rules, which makes it easy to see the changes. The practical notes give helpful guidance to people working with the new Rules for the first time. The text is easy to read and practical. Nappert (an experienced practitioner) uses the terse bullet point approach to great effect and will answer many of the questions that may arise in an arbitration using the new UNCITRAL Rules. Nappert is more accessible and will answer most of the questions a practitioner is likely to ask." - Peter S. Caldwell - "Asian Dispute Review (October 2013)"
