About the Book:
Professor Green has based his text on the draft Manual of Armed Conflict Law he prepared for the Canadian Department of National Defense. The present work is the culmination of many years of study, writing and practical experience of this body of law. This comprehensive work should prove invaluable to such departments around the world, as well as to serving officers, practicing lawyers who have to deal with any aspect of the 'laws of war', and law teachers and their students.
