It puts emphasis on the practitioners needs with a careful selection of hands-on topics, such as fact-finding in complex disputes, the role of experts, and legal reasoning and persuasion. Sensitive to contemporary challenges, the book addresses both existing questions that have evolved over time and novel topics that have not yet received sufficient attention, such as the impact of technology on award drafting.
