REVIEWS

... this book is truly indispensable.
International Company and Commercial Law Review

this little gem ... is a boon to both the draftsman who pens the clauses and the litigator who later tears them asunder... not only a selection of standard clauses but also a guide to why they [are] there in the first place and the significance of case-law on the phrasing used.
Litigation, on the second edition

... this is a surprisingly helpful and well-written compendium which should grace the shelves of any commercial practitioner's office.
