Book NoteD'Amato, Anthony (ed.), International Law Anthology, Cincinnati:
Anderson Publishing Co. (1994) xvii + 419 pages + Index. $19.90. This extraordinary book is an indispensable aid for any teacher of
international law. The book problematizes the classical syllabus of an
international law course and introduces the student to some of the major
debates and controversies concerning most topics in such a syllabus by a
selection of highly focussed and at times polemical readings. The anthology
succeeds in capturing the attention of students and engaging them
intellectually. Admittedly D'Amato the Editor has made heavy, very heavy, use
of D'Amato the author, but he is to be excused given the highly convincing
result. The book is priced so as to enable its adoption as a companion to
whatever other text book or casebook is assigned to teach an introductory - or
even advanced course in international law Both author and publisher should be
congratulated. JHHW
