‘International Environmental Law: Text, Cases and Materials is a long overdue book in the academic and practitioners’ world. Three distinguished jurists present a comprehensive publication covering the main areas of interest for all persons wishing to learn about the role and place of International Law in environmental discussions, negotiations and regimes’ setting. The legal elements influencing and shaping the treatment of the marine environment, the protection of the atmosphere and climate change, among other subjects, are presented in a well-structured and clear manner. Experts, practitioners, students, and professors from different backgrounds, will be pleased to use this book as a reference in their working activities and will find in it a source of inspiration. Spanning from principles and approaches to the multiple relationships with other branches of international law in the field of trade and armed conflicts, this book reflects the fertile process of affirmation and development of international law in our contemporary world.’
