Awards and Reviews

Lis Pendens in International Litigation
Edited by Campbell McLachlan

“[T]he breadth of research in which Professor McLachlan has engaged across three separate legal disciplines … [and] the author’s practical experience at the ‘sharp end’ of litigation covering these disciplines pervades the book….The book is recommended to academics and legislators working in the relevant fields.” – Adam Rushworth, Law Quarterly Review (January 2011)

“The virtue of this book is that it tackles the big problems head-on…. It also provides the simple pleasure of reading a crisp and illuminating account by a master of our trade of the state of the art in perhaps the most interesting legal topic of our time: the international scene.” – Baragwanath J, NZLJ 365 (2009)

Aviation Law: Cases, Laws and Related Sources
Edited by Paul B. Larsen, Joseph Sweeney, John Gillick

“….Larsen, Sweeney and Gillick have written a highly readable and well-organized treatise. It reflects materials refined over years of teaching from it. The book addresses Air Law comprehensively and well. It is an essential desk reference for any American lawyer.” - Paul Stephen Dempsey, Annals of Air and Space Law: Vol. XXXIII (2008)

“In Aviation Law, the authors, three experts in transportation law, provide the aviation law bar with a tool to make life a little easier and more pleasant. . . . The reader, whether a first-year law student or salty senior partner, receives a good dose of not only black-letter law but also a listing of primary source materials and key case reviews and citations. I have more than 35 years of aviation law experience and yet have already consulted the copy of Aviation Law in the Department of Transportation’s law library several times to refresh my memory about the nuances of aviation law. You’ll learn something from the book even if you think you know it all. . . . Aviation Law is a handy, up-to-date desk reference—a must read!” - Bernard F. Diedrich, Journal of Air Law and Commerce, Volume 72, Number 3 (Summer 2007)
