Clive Symmons, Ph.D. (Bristol), is currently a Visiting Research Fellow at Trinity College, Dublin; and was formerly also Adjunct Professor in the Marine Law & Ocean Development Centre, National University of Ireland, Galway. He has authored many articles and several books on Law of the Sea issues.

"Overall, Symmons’ revised “Historic Waters and Historic Rights in the Law of the Sea: A Modern Reappraisal” is a well-written, logically structured and timely contribution to the contemporary understanding of the doctrine of historic rights in the law of the sea... there is no doubt that Symmons’ book is the most authoritative and persuasive monograph on the subject of historic rights in the law of the sea. As such, it will be of helpful guidance to those involved in current and future cases before domestic or international courts and tribunals that touch upon historical claims in the maritime domain."- Valentin J. Schatz, Hamburg, Zeitschrift für ausländisches öffentliches Recht und Völkerrecht 80. Vol. 4 (2020)
