The ICC Rules of Arbitration constitute one of the world's oldest and most
widely used sets of rules for the resolution of international commercial
disputes.
In 1998, shortly after the entry into force of the current version of the
Rules, the First Edition of this book appeared and quickly became an
indispensable resource for all those involved or interested in ICC
arbitrations, including arbitrators, counsel, and parties.
In this updated and revised edition, the authors two of the world's leading
experts on ICC arbitration have revised the Guide in order to take stock not
only of the evolution in ICC practice over the last seven years, but of new
arbitral and judicial decisions bearing on the interpretation and application
of the Rules and of developments in international arbitration practice
generally. The Guide's notable features include:article-by-article commentary
on the ICC Rules, enriched by the authors¿ personal involvement in their
drafting and years of experience as arbitrators, counsel, and former
Secretaries General of the ICC International Court of Arbitration;ample and
greatly expanded references, in respect of the Rules¿ individual provisions,
to relevant national court judgments and arbitral awards, together with
extensive bibliographical sources; andup-to-date statistics on ICC arbitration
and copies of all ICC rules on dispute resolution mechanisms in addition to
arbitration.A truly comprehensive reference work on ICC arbitration practice,
the Second Edition of the Guide will be of immeasurable value to corporate
counsel, international lawyers, and business people, as well as to all those
interested in the international arbitration process.
