Product description
Review
'Crawford and Pert have accomplished the seemingly impossible: produced a text on IHL that matches its concise explanations with real scholarly sophistication. It also deftly combines the history of the legal regulation of warfare with the most cutting edge controversies of the field, including drones, targeted killings, and cyberwar. It will be as useful to students as it is to scholars, and has earned a permanent place on my desk.' Jens David Ohlin, Cornell Law School
'This book introduces the reader to the key principles without disregarding the doctrinal debates or discounting the contests over certain concepts.' Andrew Clapham, Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies, Geneva
