It is without doubt that this book provides an excellent overview and insight into the most salient elements and components of international disarmament and arms control law, particularly in illuminating its differentia specifica, i.e., the way in which i differs from other bodies of international law, most notably international humanitarian law. It also offers a novel manner of examining arms control disarmament laws.
