Details

Since the publication of its first edition, this textbook has been the first choice of teachers and students alike, due to its detailed examination of World Trade Organization law and clear introduction to the basic principles of its trading system. The third edition continues to explore the institutional and substantive law of the WTO. Material has been restructured to closely align with teaching approaches making it even more user-friendly. It has been updated to incorporate all new developments in the WTO's body of case law. Questions and assignments are integrated to allow students to assess their understanding, while chapter summaries reinforce learning. Each chapter ends with an exercise reflecting real-life trade problems: these challenge students (and practitioners) and enable them to hone their analytical skills. The title is an essential tool for all WTO law students and will also serve as the practitioner's introductory guide to the WTO.

• Restructured to more closely align teaching in field • All new case law developments explored

• Introduction of leading practitioner to author team offers additional expertise

• Retains comprehensive coverage, rigorous analysis and pedagogical features which ensures its market leading status

Reviews

Advance praise: 'The greatest value that I find in this book is the simplicity with which it presents a highly complex field. Not only is the book easy to read, but it is also highly systematic in its presentation. Each chapter takes the reader through a step-by-step process which, taken with the summaries of relevant cases, ensures that by its completion, the reader is well versed with the different agreements of the WTO. I would recommend this book to any student and practitioner of WTO law and policy.' William Nyambo Mwanza, student, Edinburgh Law School
