There has been an exponential rise in the use of international commercial arbitration for resolving international business disputes, yet international arbitration is a searcely regulated, specialty industry.

International Commercial Arbitration: An Asia-Pacific Perspective is the first book to explain international commercial arbitration topic by topic with an Asia-Pacific focus.

Written for students and practising lawyers alike, this authoritative book covers the principles of international commercial arbitration thoroughly and comparatively. For each issue it utilises academic writings from Asia, Europe and elsewhere, and draws on examples of legislation, arbitration procedural rules and case law from the major Asian jurisdictions. Each principle is explained in simple language before the text proceeds to more technical, theoretical or comparative content. Real-world scenarios are employed to deal with the many arbitration issues which are not covered within the various arbitration statutes.

International Commercial Arbitration is an invaluable resource that provides unique insight into real arbitration practice specific to the Asia-Pacific region, within a global context.
