"These technical and often thorny legal issues have real practical significance to all who appear before international criminal tribunals. The author discusses them with her characteristically thorough analysis and rigourously methodical research. This book will be of interest to all those who appear before extant and future tribunals regardless of the process by which they came ot be established. It is also a significant contribution to the academic analysis of the struggle against impunity." --James Mehigan, Australian International Law Journal, Volume 19
"J. Frank Dobie, the renowned Texan author, once wrote that the 'average PhD thesis is nothing but a transference of bones from one graveyard to another'. Dobie apparently viewed the majority of student theses as academic requirements, destined to collect dust in a campus repository...Thankfully, the theses drafted by Sarah Williams and Silvia D'Ascoli were not destined for such a fate, finding a saviour in Hart Publishing, which incorporated the texts into its Studies in International and Comparative Criminal Law Series. ...both books contribute greatly to areas of international criminal law in need of further treatment [and] each should be proud to have contributed in a meaningful way to this emerging body of jurisprudence. Joint review of 'Hybrid and Internationalised Criminal Tribunals' by Sarah Williams and 'Sentencing in International Criminal Law' by Silvia D'Ascoli" --Matthew Kane, International Affairs 88:5 "Sarah Williams' admirable book [is] a welcome and long overdue contribution to this field of scholarship. The breadth and heterogeneity of the subject-matter make her book a truly remarkable achievement and a must-read for anyone who wants to sudy hybrid and internationalised tribunals." --Patryk I. Labuda, Zeitschrift für Ausländisches öffentliches Recht und Völkerrecht, Volume 74(2)
