Review Quotes: "It must be said that the editors of this Handbook have achieved their stated aim -- consistent with the other volumes in the Oxford Handbook Series -- namely 'to provide a detailed entree to the field.' This remarkably wide-ranging survey will certainly be of interest not merely to practitioners and academics, but to a much wider readership in industry and government worldwide." -- Phillip Taylor MBE, Head of Chambers, and Elizabeth Taylor, Richmond Green Chamber
