and comprehensive explanation of the development of major areas in
substantive international criminal law, through a selection of key
illustrative cases from domestic and international jurisdictions.

law, fundamental principles of criminal responsibility and
defenses.

decisions presented in this casebook are accompanied by a short
introduction setting out the circumstances of the case and a brief
commentary on the importance of the decisions and principles
illustrated, with cross-references to other relevant decisions on
similar issues. At the end of each section, final remarks are
added, together with thought-provoking questions and additional
readings.

Illusion is the only reality. Jane's new career as a composer is a
dream come true, but her blossoming relationship with Adam is
marred by his terrifying nightmares. When Jane receives a warning
that a shadowy agency is targeting Adam's seminary school, she
rescues him in the nick of time, but the only way she can protect
him from such a powerful enemy is to run. In a shocking betrayal,
her brother wasn't the one who warned her about the attack on Adam.
Instead, Devin was leading it. As Jane struggles to keep one step
ahead of Devin, Adam's exhaustion gives way to horror: His
nightmares have begun to touch the real world. Jane can't abandon
Adam to a fate worse than death, and far more than Adam's life
hangs in the balance. As Jane pushes further into the dark unknown,
she must challenge everything she once believed in, and she faces
the most wrenching decision of her life: choosing between the two
people she loves most.
