Sir Peter North (Author), J. J. Fawcett (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: February 17, 2005 | ISBN-10: 0406905967 | ISBN-13: 978-0406905963 | Edition: 13

The new edition has been substantially updated to offer an up-to-date and authoritative account of the law in this rapidly changing field. As well as general updating, the chapter on Torts has been completely rewritten and the growing importance of the law of restitution has led to the inclusion of a new separate chapter on the private international law aspects of this significant field of the law of obligations. The major developments in the law on jurisdiction and the recognition of foreign judgements have also been fully discussed.

This review is from: Cheshire and North: Private International Law (Paperback)

Germans authors apart, this is the best academic book in this vast subject in the English speaking world. The Publisher should seriously consider making it available again in a new, revised and updated edition.
