Imogen Saunders is Lecturer in Law at the Australian National University, Canberra.
This is a book that is far, far more than an examination of one paragraph of a section of the Statute of the International Court of Justice. It is a book that examines the very nature of international law and, beyond that, of law itself. It is a stunning work in the finest traditions of the greatest international law thinkers. * Justice James Edelman, High Court of Australia * In this book, Imogen Saunders takes us on a quest and the whole field benefits as a result. She searches for a better way of explaining what general principles are and how they can be found and justified. She is driven by the questions of why and how, she searches for deeper understanding and coherence. Saunders' explanation meets a need that the field has long felt and is particularly timely given that the ILC has picked up this topic. This book will stand the test of time as an important contribution to any international lawyer's library. Citations to Bin Cheng's famous book on the subject will now need to be matched by citations to Imogen Saunders’s book. * Professor Anthea Roberts, The Australian National University * It is a truly impressive achievement: it’s not only an exhaustive study of the doctrine of general principles in international law but also an ambitious theoretical enterprise. * Professor Hilary Charlesworth, The University of Melbourne *
