Description
Book SynopsisTrade Review‘The book contains 10 chapters across 170 pages, wherein Ferrari et al. do an excellent job of introducing the uninitiated to “internationalist” perspectives of the recognition and enforcement of foreign arbitral awards, greatly simplifying the topic to ensure the reader’s comprehension. However, experts in this area of law will equally enjoy the extensive comparative jurisprudence that is drawn upon in the book. Besides, it makes for a very interesting read: I finished it in just two days!’ -- Chukwuma Okoli, Conflictoflaws.net blog
‘Quintessence is the queen of a land of speculative science in Rabelais' Gargantua. The New York Convention is our quintessence in the art that we call international arbitration. We can be grateful that we are able to practice our trade with the benefit of the insights of those who scrutinize our field around the world. Guidance on the New York Convention should be as practical and intellectually stimulating as this book.’ -- Julie Bédard, Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP, US and Brazil
