It has long been established as a leading authority in the field, offering an unbeatable combination of clarity of expression and academic rigour, ensuring understanding and analysis in an engaging and authoritative style. Explaining the leading rules, practice and caselaw, this treatise retains and develops the detailed referencing which encourages and assists the reader in further study. This new edition has been fully updated to reflect recent developments. In particular, it has expanded the treatment of space law and of international economic law, and introduced new sections on cyber operations and cyber warfare, as well as reflecting the Covid-19 crisis. Both clarifying fundamental principles and facilitating additional research, International Law is invaluable for students and for those occupied in private practice, governmental service and international organisations. Review: The one to choose if you're looking for a general reference work on public international law - Britain's top two university presses have competing texts on public international law (PIL): Brownlie's Principles, now written by James Crawford, from Oxford, and Malcolm Shaw's book from Cambridge. I've never taught PIL per se, though I teach some subjects that are adjacent to it (such as space law). For many years I've bought alternating editions of both books, so that I always have at least one up-to-date reference on my shelf. Shaw was always my go-to book, but I never thought about there being much difference between the two. That changed with the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. I checked the most recent (9th) editions of both works (2021 for Shaw, 2019 for Brownlie) to see if there was precedent for the UN General Assembly having authority to send in peacekeeping forces. It was much easier to find the appropriate material using Shaw's index. And whereas Brownlie stuck mainly to a superficial "four corners" analysis of the words of the pertinent treaty (in this case, the UN Charter), Shaw also had an extensive discussion of historical practice. As a result, one gets very different conclusions: that the Security Council has a monopoly on sending peacekeepers (Brownlie) vs. that the General Assembly has at times taken on concurrent jurisdiction over such matters, dating back to the Suez Crisis in 1956 (Shaw). In retrospect, this shouldn't have been a surprise: Shaw's main text is 400+ pages longer than Brownlie's, and seems to have somewhat more text per page as well. Perhaps if you're teaching the basics of PIL, or learning it for the first time, Brownlie's more concise treatment is an easier choice for getting the main ideas across. But for a better idea of how PIL has actually worked in practice, Shaw is hands-down -- or hands-on -- superior as a general reference, before checking more specialized works. Review: Labels - Came with a BUNCH of labels with hard to clean glue. Apart from that, everything was great. In terms of content… judge for yourself. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #437,800 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #31 in Foreign & International Law #685 in Law (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 102 Reviews | ## Images ![International Law - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81k+2x7WKEL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The one to choose if you're looking for a general reference work on public international law *by A***R on March 7, 2022* Britain's top two university presses have competing texts on public international law (PIL): Brownlie's Principles, now written by James Crawford, from Oxford, and Malcolm Shaw's book from Cambridge.

The quality of the book is so poor and weak. Having said that the content is so rich and fascinating for a law student. ## Frequently Bought Together - International Law - Brownlie's Principles of Public International Law - International Law --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/317435617-international-law](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/317435617-international-law) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-26*
