'This formidable work brings together the leading experts in the field of international investment law to address cutting edge issues in that law as well as covering the particular problems that arise in geographical regions. Existing areas are competently surveyed. But more importantly, new areas such as the impact of sustainable development, the interface with trade in services, the context of economic crises and others are conveniently covered in a single book so that a search does not have to be made in several works to find the law. It is a work that will be of immense help to students, researchers and practitioners in the field.'--M. Sornarajah, National University of Singapore
