"If you’re an arbitrator or arbitration lawyer involved in resolving cross border disputes, you need this book for its rules, particularly if the seat of the arbitration is in a country or jurisdiction other than the one in which you are qualified. 
For shipping lawyers, including ‘in house’ lawyers, as well as arbitrators and dispute resolution lawyers, or anyone involved in negotiating cross border contracts,  the ‘Arbitration Law Handbook ‘is a must-have work of reference."

The increased interest in international arbitration as a method of dispute resolution in cross-border contracts, and the widespread practice of including arbitration clauses in such contracts, means that practitioners are often called upon to advice on disputes which will be heard abroad. Ready access to the relevant arbitration laws in force at the seat (or potential seat) of the arbitration is essential.

Additionally, there is an international section in which the UNCITRAL Model Law and Arbitration Rules are set out and in which the major international conventions relating to arbitration, such as the New York Convention and table of signatories, are reproduced. The section also includes the ICSID Arbitration Rules (applicable to the settlement of investment disputes), as well as those of WIPO (applicable to the settlement of intellectual property disputes).
