Its in-depth coverage includes:

analysis of the doctrinal basis of international criminal law

detailed treatment of 16 crimes that have been given international jurisdiction, including torture, genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity
issues of immunity and jurisdiction
judicial assistance
recognition of foreign penal judgments
extradition and transfer of prisoners
taking evidence abroad
seizure of foreign assets
international criminal tribunals procedure
international criminal prosecutions in domestic courts

and a great deal more. Attention is paid throughout the presentation to the complex cultural and regional issues that often arise in this field of practice.
This new second edition has been thoroughly revised by the contributors, making this the most current and comprehensive treatment available of this major area of international law theory and practice.
