"A refreshingly accessible introduction to the World Trade Organization and the contemporary challenges that it faces. This book will become an important first reference point for both students and members of the general public interested in learning about the WTO and the way that it affects their lives." -- Andrew Lang, Professor of Law, London School of Economics "A wonderful little book packed with useful information and explanations... Students and those new to international trade law will absolutely love this." -- Bryan Mercurio, Professor of Law and Associate Dean (Research), Chinese University of Hong Kong "A concise and insightful introduction to the intricacies of a poorly understood institution. Using a jargon-free style and focusing on what matters most, this guide to the WTO provides the reader with a superb compass to navigate through a maze of multilateral trade agreements, institutional provisions and dispute settlement rules. An invaluable tool for anyone interested in learning what the WTO is about." -- Dr Gabriel Gari, Senior Lecturer in International Economic Law, Centre for Commercial Law Studies, Queen Mary University of London "Commendable, clear and thoughtful. This will make it much easier for the non-expert to understand the organization." -- David A. Gantz, Samuel M. Fegtly Professor of Law and Co-Director, International Trade and Business Law Program, University of Arizona
