Recenzje

'Sabel's work is without a doubt the best single volume addressing the subject. It is a clear, concise, and even-handed summary of often complex legal issues and disputes of profound contemporary importance and widespread interest. International Law and the Arab-Israeli Conflict should be consulted as a matter of course by practitioners, scholars, and students of international affairs.' Tony J. Tanke, Attorney, Davis, California; Former Lecturer, Santa Clara University School of Law
