Brownlie's analysis and assessment should certainly promote tighter and better drafting, while encouraging, among practical and practicing lawyers, clearer thinking about claims and rights, wrongs and reparation, and the sheer mechanics of state responsibility.-Guy S. Goodwin-Gill in The American Journal of International Law. "The author's crisp style renders this a remarkably handy volume considering its wealth of information and its extensive provision of original materials."-Gunther F. Handl in International Lawyer. An invaluable source for all those involved in the teaching or practice of international law, this authoritative study provides a detailed analysis of the substantive principles of state responsibility.
The most authoritative work in the field, this classic study is once again available. Professor Brownlie has confined himself to the pursuit, on historic lines, of an estimation of the extent of legal prohibition of the use of force by states. He includes the deliberations and findings of political organs of the League of Nations and the United Nations, as well as a study of the quality of prohibition of force, making some indication of relevant corollaries.
Lord Wilberforce is one of Britain's most respected and distinguished judges. He became a QC in 1954, a Judge of the High Court (Chancery Division) in 1961 and a Lord of Appeal in Ordinary in 1964, finally retiring from the judiciary in 1982. He was President of the International Law Association for twenty-five years and is currently its Patron. He has been involved with many judicial and non-judicial activities, including spells as a visiting Fellow of Linacre and Wolfson Colleges in Oxford. He is High Steward of the University of Oxford, and a fellow of All Souls College. To most lawyers Lord Wilberforce will be known for the clarity and extreme breadth of knowledge displayed in his judgements over the years. He is a gifted scholar who has contributed in innumerable ways to the growth and development of English law. As a commercial lawyer his work is well known, but he has played a part in recent developments in administrative law and not least in international commercial arbitration.

Treitel, Professor D.G.T. Williams, Dr F.A. Mann, President Nagendra Singh, Lord Justice Kerr, Lord Justice Mustill, N.P.M. Elles, and Professor C.J. Olmstead.
Treaties and Indigenous Peoples is an edited version of Professor Ian Brownlie's 1990 Robb Lectures, delivered at the University of Auckland in the sesquicentennial year of the establishment of New Zealand as a British colony. Whereas most sesquicentennial writing necessarily deals with Treaty and related problems in the immediate context of New Zealand law and politics, Professor Brownlie, bringing the external perspective and the expertise of an eminent academic and practising international lawyer, deals with those problems in the international context of the rights of indigenous peoples. The New Zealand constitutional background to the work is provided by Professor Brookfield's annotations.
Brownlie's Documents on Human Rights provides an extensive collection of key documents covering all elements of the subject, accompanied by authoritative commentary and bibliographic annotation. The result is a clear and accurate set of the most important human rights instruments adopted by the United Nations and its agencies, by regional organisations, and other actors in the field. This text contains the essentials for a thorough study of human rights, mapping well onto both undergraduate and postgraduate courses. It provides the convenience of an indispensable 'one-stop' collection for research and reference, for practitioners and students alike, with guidance from the leading experts in the field.
Basic Documents in International Law draws together all of the most
important documents needed for the study of international law.
Collated by Ian Brownlie, a worldwide expert in the field, this
book has provided students and practitioners with the most
essential instruments giving a thorough grounding in this diverse
and fascinating field of law.
The British Year Book of International Law, a leading periodical in the field, has been published regularly since 1922. It is now published annually. It features major articles and reviews of books in international law, together with surveys of decisions of British courts involving questions of international law, and UK materials on international law.

Course on Public International Law delivered at the Hague Academy
of International Law to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of the
foundation of the United Nations. The author brings to them not
only his background of academic distinction, but his experience as
a practitioner concerned with major international legal issues.
