This book is a most valuable contribution that will surely be well received and widely quoted. It circles around the metaphor of game playing, which helps to explain many aspects of the interpretative process. Interpretation is a fascinating topic, and I do hope that this well-researched and well-written book prompts further research on interpretation in international law, its theory and its practice. Interpretation in International Law is an original and thought-provoking edited volume dealing with a challenging issue of international legal theory, an issue that has a bearing on the way international legal interpretation is understood and ultimately conducted. * Odile Ammann, Harvard International Law Journal * Owing to the excellent level of its contributions and original structure, Interpretation in International Law represents a timely and innovative addition to the literature. . . [O]ffering invaluable insight on the nature and implications of interpretive mechanics and strategies, it will undoubtedly assist scholars of international law fascinated with interpretation as well as those interested in more general and systemic issues. * Niccolo Ridi, Kings Law Journal * There is much to commend here: the creativity on display, the eclectic range of topics canvassed, the way in which the volume brings together established and emerging scholars from a range of interpretive traditions. This thoughtful collection of essays is a valuable companion for those who face problems of interpretation in international law. * James Crawford, International Court of Justice *
