For students tackling international trade law for the first time, the sheer breadth of statutory material and conventions is daunting.  There is also the added difficulty of finding this material and ensuring it is up to date.  To overcome these fundamental problems, students should seriously consider buying International Trade Law Statues and Conventions 2009-2010.

Written by experienced academics in this area of law, International Trade Law Statues and Conventions 2009-2010 is separated into eight distinct parts: statutes; statutory instruments; European Union materials; Conventions; rules and model laws; standard forms; and standard trading conditions.  These last two are excellent inclusions because they give a valuable insight for students by showing how the law works in practice.

Like other statute texts in this series from Routledge, each statutory provision begins on a fresh page with each later page including the name of the provision in the heading.  Longer provisions also often have an index to allow the relevant part of the statute to be quickly found.  The headings also stand out by being in blue whilst the substantive part of the text is in black: this is a great improvement on the statute books of the earlier part of this decade.

International Trade Law Statues and Conventions 2009-2010 is an excellent statute book.  It is comprehensive and includes nearly 1,000 pages of material.  It also has a detailed index and a fantastic layout to ensure the relevant provisions can be quickly found.  For any student taking an exam on this area of law, this is an important feature.  Its price, at less than £19, also makes it extremely competitive and excellent value for money.
