The Legal Texts: The Results of the Uruguay Round of Multilateral Trade Negotiations (World Trade Organization Legal Texts)

For anyone that has a personal or professional interest in international trade, you must have a copy of the "The Legal Texts: The Results of the Uruguay Round of Multilateral Trade Negotiations". It is simply the best reference guide to the multilateral trade agreements that govern global trade. As mentioned in other reviews, the legal texts are available online at the World Trade Organization (WTO) website; that said, having a hard copy is very convenient for quick reference checks.

The only reason I chose this used retailer over others was because they categorically stated that there are no annotations or markings of any kind on the book. After checking the book, I find that it is in fact the opposite. I am seeing markings on a number of pages. Extremely disappointed in the false misrepresentation.

PLEASE DISREGARD THE 1 RATING. I wish to take that rating back.I gave him that rating before. Unfortunately, I cannot remove it now that it has been 60 days. However, I should have made it a 3 out of 5. So I'm giving him a 5 to even it out.Andrew168 made a mistake but he eventually corrected it. I got my money back. There are no problems anymore.Furthermore, the book itself was in fantastic condition I must say.

It is not without good reason that this book is referred to in WTO Law as "The Bible". This book contains all the legal text relevant to current WTO law. The short and simple truth is that if you're studying or working in any field involving WTO Law, you'll need this book. Like most government or international organization publications it could use better organizing and have better indexes, but on the whole it does its job more than adequately.

This is the bible of international trade, as others have noted. I have a copy of the 11th printing published in 2005 but am buying a newer printing to get the index. Don't buy a copy that doesn't have an index because if you're not a legal scholar you will have a hard time tracing the issues through the trade law.

The WTO Legal Texts, copublished by the WTO and Cambridge University Press, is a essential reference for anyone working on WTO issues. Although the WTO agreements are available to the public on the WTO website, as well as the worldtradelaw.net website, most scholars and practitioners will want a compact volume to carry and to underline. Cambridge U. Press has put a sturdy binding on the paperback volume. The one flaw in the volume is that it omits the plurilateral agreements, such as the Agreement on Government Procurement. It would also be helpful in a future edition to improve the usability of the Table of Contents.

Puntualidad

I was surprised because the book used to belong to a library. That explains why it's still new and has no mark on it. Really good for my studying.
