    This concise yet comprehensive textbook introduces the reader to the law and practice of international arbitration. Arbitration is a complex field due to the variety of disciplines involved and necessitates an approach that takes nothing for granted. Written by a renowned scholar and practitioner, this book explains the divergent issues of civil procedure, contracts, conflict of laws, international law amongst others in an accessible manner. Focusing mainly on international commercial arbitration, the book also features a distinct chapter on consumer and online arbitration and an equally comprehensive chapter on international investment arbitration.

    • Short, concise and accessible - ideal for students and practitioners without prior expertise in arbitration
    • First two chapters explain the foundational concepts and provide a holistic view of arbitration
    • Footnotes contain sources, not references to further reading
