"A Guide to the IBA Rules on the Taking of Evidence in International Arbitration (the Guide) is a comprehensive, clear and well-structured reference book for any international arbitration practitioner dealing with evidential matters. The authors and consultant editor have drawn upon their deep and diverse experience of civil and common law matters, and their extensive networks of global contacts, to bring together international perspectives on the IBA Rules and their practical application. ... The IBA Rules are referred to in so many international arbitrations that this thorough reference book is likely to be a useful companion for many arbitration practitioners on a regular basis. I therefore have no hesitation in recommending the Guide as a valuable resource for any arbitration library." -- Philip Clifford QC, Arbitration
