    Thanks for this, it is very helpful.

    While perhaps not from a “major university press,” I would like to mention David Weissbrodt and Connie de la Vega, International Human Rights Law: An Introduction (Philadelphia, PA: University of Pennsylvania Press, 2007). Indeed, it might be nice if in the future other publishers could be included, in particular, those with an extensive catalogue of law titles, like Brill and Hart.

  2. Delphine Amrhein - November 27, 2007 at 9:20 pm

    My husband has self published a book about, among other things, Maritime law called The Hidden Galleon (website, thehiddengalleon.com) about judicial abuse of maritime law among other things, very timely in light of LOST and the Odyssey Marine lawsuit with Spain.

  3. Jason - November 29, 2007 at 10:06 pm

    I agree that this is quite helpful, especially since the “books received” section of periodicals appears to have long since gone out of style.
