Reviews
'Professor Kern Alexander brings to this subject an exceptional array of talents, including law, economics and policy, on a grand and sweeping international and philosophical scale. He brings to the subject profound scholarship and a strong sense of pragmatic realities. Some have said that this topic has grown so vast and unmanageable over recent years that it is impossible for one person to cover the subject. Professor Kern has done just that with verve and insight: he has conquered the subject.' Philip R. Wood, Yorke Distinguished Visiting Fellow, University of Cambridge, and Queen Mary University, London
