Editorial Reviews
Review
– Myron H. Nordquist, University of Virginia, School of Law, US
This book is an outstanding analysis of piracy and maritime crimes in the ASEAN region edited by two world-class law of the sea experts. It is must reading for anyone seriously interested in ending the scourge of piracy.’
– John Norton Moore, University of Virginia and former United States Law of the Sea Ambassador
’I can confidently say that this is the best book on the legal dimension of the problem of piracy in general, and of piracy in Southeast Asia and off the coast of Somalia in particular, and what we can do about it. Robert Beckman and Ashley Roach are two of the finest minds working in international law today. They have brought their knowledge and sharp analytical skills to edit a book of great relevance to the world’s shipping industry, IMO, ASEAN and international lawyers and law enforcement agencies.’
– Tommy Koh, UNCLOS
