Principles of Alternative Dispute Resolution

Stephen Ware · 2016
74/100
👍 Worth It

Stephen Ware's hornbook is a reliable, regularly updated statement of ADR law with particular strength in arbitration — exactly what law students and practitioners need and not something the dossier oversells. It is a textbook, not a page-turner, and it has no audience outside legal education. Within that lane it earns its place on the shelf and its continued adoption through multiple editions speaks for itself.
