Francis Lyall, Paul B. Larsen. Space law : a
treatise. Ashgate, c2009. KZD1145.L93 2009 This book gathers together their experience in readable form and, with
an extensive citation of the literature of space law, its discussion
provides an excellent source for both student and practitioner.
This treatise, authored by two of the leading experts in the
complicated and rapidly-developing field of outer space law, is a unique
asset. It is both comprehensive (covering a wide swath of public and
private law issues) and current (providing both the historical background
and the up-to-the-minute details of contemporary controversies), and its
many footnotes provide citations to documents that are both obscure and
important. It is sure to become an indispensable component of any space
lawyer's bookshelf. |
