Publisher’s Note
Global Arbitration Review is delighted to publish The Guide to M&A Arbitration.
For those unfamiliar with GAR, we are the online home for international arbitration specialists, telling them all they need to know about everything that matters. Most know us for our daily news and analysis service. But we also provide more in-depth content: books and reviews; conferences; and handy workflow tools, to name just a few. Visit us at www.globalarbitrationreview.com to find out more.
Being at the centre of the international arbitration community, we regularly become aware of fertile ground for new books. We are therefore delighted to be publishing the second edition of this guide on mergers and acquisitions within the world of arbitration. It is a practical know-how text in two parts. Part I identifies the most salient issues in M&A arbitration, while Part II surveys substantive principles from select regional perspectives.
We are delighted to have worked with so many leading firms and individuals to produce The Guide to M&A Arbitration. If you find it useful, you may also like the other books in the GAR Guides series. They cover energy, construction, mining, and challenging and enforcing awards in the same practical way.We also have books on advocacy in international arbitration and the assessment of damages, and a citation manual (Universal Citation in International Arbitration). Our thanks to the Editor, Amy C Kläsener, for her vision and energy in pursuing this project and to our colleagues in production for achieving such a polished work.
