And there are enough fine essays in the book, on a variety of topics, to make it altogether suitable for a university or office library." International Journal on World Peace
"As a comprehensive, scholarly reflection on the International Court of Justice, Fifty Years of the International Court of Justice excels." Dana M. Caudle, Journal of Government Information
