Overall, a good collection
All in all, it provides a pretty good collection of international statutes/conventions. However when searching for certain Conventions relating to terrorism, I found some of them to be missing from the collection thereby creating an impression that there may be more such statutes/conventions missing from the book, for e.g. Agreement Governing the Activities of States on the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies. Also, if you are looking for the 1949 Geneva Conventions and its additional protocols, this ain't your book.Certainly that does not take away the fact that it provides you with a fairly good collection of international statutes. The concept of having two 'contents' pages, one mentioning the statutes in an alphabetical order and the other laying them down in the order of the year in which each statute was enacted, is definitely helpful.

An essential vademecum
I've been buying this since the first edition, many years ago and still find it essential for use in parallel with online access.

Useful if required for the exam
I only bought this book because it is necessary to pass the exam, but I guess it is its main purpose anyway. Otherwise, you probably don't need to buy it as all the documents (conventions, treaties, statutes...) are accessible through the internet!

Could be better
If you're hoping to see the Moon Treaty included in this book you will be disappointed. It has been taken out of the 10th edition without explanation. The text also fails to provide any information about which states have signed or ratified a particular treaty or whether there are any derogations, so if that's what you're after you need to look elsewhere.
