The Center for Oceans Law and Policy, University of Virginia School of Law, annually hosts a conference on a topical subject of interest to the global law of the sea community. The 25th meeting of the Center was co-sponsored by the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (ITLOS), and held in March 2001, at its Hamburg headquarters. The conference theme, Current Marine Environmental Issues and the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, featured two days of presentations from many of the world's foremost experts. The published conference proceedings include papers by Satya N. Nandan, Secretary-General, International Seabed Authority; P. Chandrasekhara Rao, President, ITLOS; most of the ITLOS judges; and a number of private practitioners concerned with the marine environment. Topics discussed focused on the past, present, and future dispute settlement activities of ITLOS and the regulatory consequences in Europe as a result of the Erika oil spill on 12 December, 1999. "Current Marine Environmental Issues and the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea" is a collection of commentary, compiled through the co-operation of an academic institution and an international organization specifically dedicated to peaceful settlement of disputes in the world's oceans.

Review
'"The present volume includes contributions by no less than 14 sitting Judges of the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (ITLOS) in Hamburg. The collective authority that both these and the other contributors bring to this volume is undeniable and indeed arguably unmatched in any single volume on the law of the sea to date. Overall, this compilation of judicial, practioner and academic legal opinion on the marine environmental issues of the day from the ITLOS perspective provides an unparalleled overview of both the substantive and procedural legal issues arising therefrom and thus deserves a place in any law library.
